Railroads were extremely important because it allowed people to travel faster, move shipments faster, and promote westward expansion. Andrew Carnegie made steel easy to produce and affordable. He became rich and allowed skyscrapers to be built. Carnegie created the most the efficient way to produce steel. He helped pro workers by paying them decent amounts and he thought laborers should have some more rights and benefits. He did things with oil and gasoline. Darwinism was put into work with business also, Roosevelt was stopping monopolies. Know the last sentence. The labor unions fought for better wages, hours, and working conditions.
