Slater's machines, particularly the water frame invented by Richard Arkwright, revolutionized the textile industry by mechanizing the spinning process, significantly increasing efficiency and production capacity. This innovation allowed for the mass production of yarn, reducing reliance on manual labor and traditional hand-spinning methods. As a result, it contributed to the growth of factories and the shift towards industrialization, ultimately transforming the textile sector into a cornerstone of the Industrial Revolution.

In Upton Sinclair's novel "The Jungle," the harsh realities of the meatpacking industry exposed the corruption and exploitation inherent in political machines. The dire conditions faced by immigrant workers highlighted the need for reform, leading to public outrage and demands for change. This scrutiny ultimately weakened the political machines by undermining their power and prompting legislative reforms aimed at improving labor rights and food safety. The revelations galvanized a movement for transparency and accountability in government and industry.
The workers who broke machines in revolt were known as the Luddites. This movement emerged in the early 19th century, primarily in England, as textile workers protested against the industrial revolution's impact on their jobs and livelihoods. They believed that new machinery threatened their traditional skills and employment, leading them to destroy weaving machines and other equipment in protest. The term "Luddite" has since evolved to describe people resistant to technological change.
Immigrants to the US and farm people seeking new opportunities in the industrial cities found work in textile mills and other types of factories. The working conditions were terrible and dangerous. They had to work long hours for bad pay. Often times women and children worked in these industrial factories.These conditions existed in other parts of the industrial revolution world as well.
Francis Cabot Lowell brought the advances in English power looms to America in 1814. Although he was unable to buy the designs while visiting England, he was able to memorize them and bring them back that way. His looms continued to improve and textile making in the US was off and running.
It allowed textiles to be produced much quicker - and to a much higher standard by use of multiple banks of machines with minimal operators
it gave people alot of options!!
They opened textile mills that employed many workers.

The industrial revolution changed working conditions for people with the implementation of machines. Machines started to replace workers in the workplace as well as ease the workload.
