Industrial revolution

             Industrial Revolution booms in England
             The Industrial Revolution, what is it exactly? The Industrial Revolution is the greatly increased output of machine-made goods. Is the Industrial Revolution all bad or good?

Also everyone who does go to school only goes to school about 2 hours everyday. Since they've been only going for two hours they've been working in the factories for 12 hours and getting barely any pay. If a child ever got exhausted during work hours they would be punished. Since children's hands could get caught in the machinery they would get fired, cause what is a good worker if they can't work.
             The good thing is that most of these negative effects on people and society can be fixed. The Railway for one could be shared with other nations and help industrialize them, and also find a more efficient way to run them so it doesn't pollute the air and water. Also more of the children can go to school for more hours in a day and can be taught better with better school supplies and the teacher could be smarter and more schools could...
