Select ALL the correct answers.

Answer 1

The three statements about the Gilded Age that are true are:

• Presidents sometimes could not enact policies they wanted because Congress was opposed to their ideas.

• Although reform movements did not always succeed, they laid the groundwork for the Progressive Era.

• The highly unequal distribution of wealth did not change greatly in these three decades.​

The Gilded Age was a time period that lasted between 1870 to 1900. The period was marked by remarkable innovations and industrialization and the growth of corruption and monopolies by big business magnates.

Bribery was the order of the day and the wealthy businessmen used their influence to get congress to make laws that favored them.

Congress itself was filled with corrupt legislators who overrode the will of the President.

That period also laid the groundwork of the Progressive Era that lasted between 1896 to 1916.
