19. + Factories and Mass Production Mass Production: the system of manufacturing large numbers of identical items Leads to the development of the Assembly line in the United states Advantages: Increase in production for less cost Increases profits Disadvantages: Less skilled jobs Workers are easily replaced

20. + Political Problems in the Early Industrial Revolution British government tries to stay out of problems in the factories Gov’t refused to pass laws regulating labor, child labor, or safe working conditions at first Causes people to form labor unions: organizations representing workers interests Strike (stop work) to bring about change Forces British gov’t to make changes eventually
