What helped the antebellum economy of New York City?

New York City made remarkable economic progress as the US developed in the antebellum era. One change within the US had a particular impact, among others. One change of note created the city's economy that revolved around ready to wear clothing. On the demand side, the rising slave population in the South turned New York into a center for inexpensive clothing. George Opdyke began to manufacture this ready to wear clothing and it was to New Orleans for distribution. Progress in production technology included the development of the factory system. This was enhanced by the introduction of Elias Howe's sewing machine in 1846. Mechanization decreased the costs of production. This soon surpassed custom made clothing for other sectors of the population. This reduction in costs for the ready to wear market enabled higher demand.As an aside, abolitionists such as Harriet Beecher Stowe, saw how the North became dependent to a certain degree on the institution of slavery. Thus she spread the blame for this accursed institution nationwide.


What were the economic changes from the 1770's to 1870?

Mothers in 1770 used to be brought to a place for "Instructing" ,but later it was revealed publicly that they had been reconditioned to birth heftier and mightier forms of the American Man. This changed things about 1846 when the gang known as SS, or, "Stars Spangled ". This party had brought solace upon America, secretly going house to house delivering doom to those who would oppose the armies work on advanced Alpha Gorillas, to be used when the war got out of hand. These Gorillas were have their DNA injected into our soon to be"Super Soldiers", in which we would win the war regardless of numbers. Hope this helped :D


What is a criticism of globalization?

Globalization is an attack (or it threatens) individual/or indepentent empires. Human nature is human nature, (so far) that cannot be changed. Some examples: 1. The state of Texas created it's own Republic in 1836; separating from Mexico in that year. Then gave up it's empire (independence) to become a state (subject to federal laws) in about 1845. The leader of Texas had to step down to a lower status (Governor instead of President). 2. California did the same thing in 1846, that's why it says "California Republic" on the bottom of the state flag. 3. Until recently, there were two California state uniformed law enforcement agencies; the Highway Patrol and the State Police. This allowed for TWO chiefs (or Directors) of TWO agencies and their staffs. They were combined (globalized) into one agency, one of those two chiefs had to lose his job. Now, the CHP provides protection for the Governor, not the state police. 4. The current county, (there's more) of Siskiyou in northern California has always wanted, and still advertises it, the separate state of Jefferson. This would create a new kingdom for a person to be a governor and his staff. 5. Cities within counties like to become their own "city" with their own "police department" and "mayor." This creates new chiefs (and their staffs) and a new mayor to rule over his new kingdom. 6. Even though, in the practical sense, we (human beings) already have globalization in the form of this computer...television, radio, airliners, satellites, telephones, telegrams, etc. People still like to hold onto their "kingdoms." Even though the "might US dollar" is still quite popular world-wide...the UK, the only English speaking nation in Europe will not let go of it's POUND (or Sterling); causing large amounts of discomfort to US consumers wanting to order products from the UK...because they don't want to relinguish their "empire" (by retaining their currency) US/world concumers must CONVERT to their British pound. 7. It's human nature; personal pride; national pride. 8. To a certain extent, it occurs in the US too; Texas pride...New York pride, Idaho pride, Arizona pride...but at least in America we can buy gas for our cars without converting the Yankee dollar to Texas, New York, Idaho, or Arizona dollars!
