Prohibition, would never work. People do what they want. Smoke the green or drink. Either way they don't follow the rules. I think that people should just let it happen. Go with the flow. It's their life they shall do what they want.

During the progressive era, there was disgusting job sites, where people would go to the bathroom or spit on the ground right here everything would go into this big thing, and made into left over meat. That is seriously gross.

Think about if there was no progressive era there probably be no regular food that is here for us now. There would be no such thing as unions too fight for the job labor and such. I believe that The United States pretty much needed the progressive era. It did us good.

During the Spanish war, it basically showed us how cruel we were and mean to everyone. It was just a bad time for most people.

The Revolutionary war let the other countries know that we were not going to give up, and possibly back down.

I agree. During the war, they were just worrying about what they were doing to survive and fight for their country. They just wanted to go home and be done.

I agree with thiss. Back in the progressive era people really had to fight for survive. the boss's didn't care if people were hurt as long as the job was done. & they were lucky if they made a dollar by the end of the week.

I support this comment. I think back then those children shouldn't have such a hard of a life. That's just wrong how they ended up, either hurt or killed. But the owners didn't really care as long as the job was done.

In the progressive era, i think it was wrong what some of the workers did in the factories. When they gave all the left over meat and dirt, mixed it all together for a couple cents. and thats how most kids or people got sick. They didn't really have much money. And at the time those kids were working in factories to survive.

I wonder what if the world never had the war. What would it be like?

Well during the Child labor the industrialization era was very hard on kids. Most kids got killed, or permanently injured. .

Pinkertons are not needed! Us workers have a right to think what is right, and should be able to say what it is. & If people don't like it, well then that is to bad.

As a women worker i am not for the Pinkertons. We have freedom of speech and we should be able to say how we feel. If you were running a good business people shouldn't want to go on strike in the first place.

I agree with minimum wage because then the employees can live at least off of the amount they are basically making. If they are being paid $7.25, they don't have to worry about it going less and them not being able to make a living & feed their family. & Atleast have a job.

I am for the minimum wage, it helps pay the bills & take care of my family. If i didn't take the money then i wouldn't be able to put food on the table. If i was against it my family would be starving.

Just because you're a woman doesn't mean you can't do as much as the others can! You can handle 60 hours a week, if the guys can you can too. It's bascially a bonus you can make more money and take care of your family.

I am against the 40 hour week days because the children can also work,and if they are capable of doing work then they should! I am a woman and I believe that everyone is capable of doing labor and should do as much as they can, and working only 40 hours a week isn't okay with me.
