Today we talked about whether we thought the populist were successful or not. We started talking about the Progressive Era which meant a time where we started to progress. 1890-1920. 4 goals of progressives- protecting social well fair( helping the poor) Promoting moral improvement- (women wanted to ban alcohol) Socialism/ Communist-( the government controls more) Capitalism-(more of the citizens vote and opinion) Creating economic reform-( trying to change how we run things so that our economy doesn't change) Today we are a mixed economy. Fostering efficiency- (paying workers better so they're stay there and more people will have more money to buy their products.) ALL THESE ARE TRYING TO MAKE THE ECONOMY BETTER.
The topics I got were
1912 Presidential Election
4. Socialist candiate and platform
5. Results and why Wilson won
