The super rich of the industrial era sought monopolies, where they could have complete dominance of an industry without any competition. They thus believed that the marketplace works in similar ways to that of nature, where only the fittest survive and those unable to compete become extinct. In this way, they were "Social Darwinists", and Andrew Carnegie's monopoly of the steel industry was no exception.
There are issues in the United States and other nations that have similar political and economic systems that are both political & industrial. However, here the differces between those that are different are addressed.Example A. of a political issue:Currently in most US States there are school closings for both Christian and Jewish holidays. A political issue would involve a few points, such as should these holidays of school closures be increased or decreased? Or, should important holidays in the religion of Islam be recognized as a school closure holiday?Example B. of an industrial issue:An electrictricty producer in New Jersey is known to add additional pollution to the air as the population of the State increases. The "industrial producer" has stated that this will happen and no one disagrees. The producer burns coal to produce the electricity. The fact is that to place stronger emission equipment on the facility will add x dollars to the cost of electricity. The issue is not one of "politics" its one of cost and air pollution.Thus an example of a political vs industrial issue.
