My thoughts on whether the industrial revolution was good or bad is I think that it is a bit of both because there were the slaves which were bad because no one wants to work for someone else and get no food, no pay and pretty much get worked until we die so that is a bad point but the other thing is that is also changed us for the better because it took us a while be we as humans figured out the cheap slavery isn't going to solve our problems and it is a cruel punishment for the slaves but we eventually figured out that we should treat each others as equals which is something good that came out of it but another thing was figuring out new ways to power new inventions and the new inventions that made the working life easier another negative though would be that lots of jobs and lives were lost in the process which in the next revolution I hope doesn't happen but something that even through the Industrial revolution we didn't figure out is we shouldn't be separated by money I mean this is what started the revolution coal and money people wanted more of it so they bought the machines to increase productivity but in a way we are all still separated by classes another point is that if the industrial revolution we wouldn't have lots of thing we have today like computers and mechanically engineered runners because if the industrial revolution hadn't happen machines to manufacture these products wouldn't of been invented and so we would not have them but over all I think it was a good thing because even though we did bad things during the Industrial Revolution it may of taken us a while but we corrected our mistakes and made it right which was a good thing so after considering all the industrial revolution information I have shared on this website I now say that its was a good thing.
