style. New goods entered to the market
including electrical products which 60 of Americans used these product such as
vacuum, refrigerators. Also, the automobile was one of the boom which
noticeable on that time and it was the start of Ford and General Motors. Moreover,
business boom became globally as well which many companies tend to build
production faculties abroad US. This boom helped US economy but farmers had a
hard time during this era because people moved from the agriculture to build
these products. The wage was unequally between all the workers, it was depend
on the place where they working in.
Women got her
share in the new economic era which many of them worked outside the home. Most
women workers held low paying and in unskilled positons. However, women were
working in offices as secretaries or typists. As result, may women tend to go
to school in order to get a good positions and I thinking it was a good pushing
to them. Women also were courted as consumers which they women as kind of
encouraging people to buy. ”women smiled behind the steering wheel.” ” Boyer,

many jobs in industrial market and gives women an opportunity to involve more
