Railroads impacted corporate America in many ways. First, to start construction of railroads it was needed a huge amount of steel, iron, and coal, this caused the development of new industries in these areas.

Railroads also increased mobility and made able to spread goods around the country which caused the growth of crops business and cattle - which led to big business investing in these areas -.

Also, Railroads companies were the first business to raise funds by issuing stocks and bonds, they were responsible for creating new concepts of management and were the first giant corporations in the US.

Consider what you have learned about American history from the 1920s to the 1940s. How do the stories you have read in this unit
Murljashka [212]

For the period from the 1920s to the 1940s showed periods of prosperity and hardships for the United States.  The early twenties showed a period of prosperity as many people enjoyed many luxuries until the crash of the stock market which ushered the Great Depression where many people lost their jobs as well as their savings.  Yet through government programs and the resilience of the American people, they were able to overcome it.  The forties show America entered World War II where it had triumphed over the Axis Powers.  Following the end of the Second World War, ushered in another period of prosperity.  What I have learned is that through the good times and the bad, the citizens of the U.S. always weather out the storm of terrible times and triumph in the end.

Galina-37 [17]
The Feminine Mystique was a book written during the women's liberation movement by Betty Friedan. In this book, Friedan discusses the dissatisfaction and frustration of American women around the country who were college educated but were still only seen as a housewife. Friedan felt that the pressure to conform to societal norms was crushing the will/spirit of women in the US. In this book, she encourages women to seek out fulfillment and worry about their own happiness instead of trying to fit into societal norms as to how a woman should behave.
