What are steerage passengers?

Many new immigrants passes over the Atlantic from Europe in the early 1900's and late 1800's. Steerage was a horrible way to travel, but it was also the cheapest. Most of the trips were 8-14 days. 8-14 days with no ventilation, 6-8 foot ceilings, hay for bedding, and in the best case senarios 1 toilet for every 47 people. These horrible conditions spread contagious diseases and sea-sickness ran ramped. Some have compared these steerage rides to the slaves rides with no chains.
