Today in class we talked more about the technical glitches that have been encountering lately. First we talked about Worker's safety and Worker's Comp. Before there wasn't anything like this because there was entremely dangerous machines that often killed people. OSHA makes sure that businesses are safe for workers and close them down if they weren't.Prohibition was the banning of alcohol during the early 1900's. They couldn't distribute alcohol to other people but they could make and drink it at there own home. People were heavy drinkers. They heavily regulated it before the actual ammendment. People wanted to get rid of alcohol because it led to a lot of crime and social problems. Women really wanted this because they had to deal with the drunked husbands. Progressives asked for the 18th ammendement which would ban alcohol nationwide.This is all that we did today because Mr. Bruns had to leave for a basketball game.
