The fourth answer is correct (D).

The development of the manufacturing environments generated a strong demand for workers, being the first great training fafor of the working class.

At that time there were no labor laws, so the men worked 6 to 7 days a week, with low wages, and hours that went beyond 12 hours a day. For an even smaller salary, women and children were subjected to the same tasks as the grown men. At the same time, the working conditions offered at the factories were precarious. Without proper facilities and no safety, the factories offered a risk of damage to the health and physical integrity of the workers.

Why does Joshua Drake allow his children to work in textile factories? List at least two pieces of evidence. Your answer should

Amanda [17]

I have attached a document I found that details the questioning of Joshua Drake. I based my answer from this document.

Joshua Drake allows his children to work in the textile factories because of NECESSITY.

Joshua Drake only works for 2 days. He has other means of income but these are not permanent nor are they enough to subsidize the needs of the family.

Everyone in the family needs to work in order for them to satisfy their most basic needs. That is why his children also work because what they earn goes to the family coffers.

For Joshua Drake, it is preferable to work limited hours and earn lower wages compared to working longer hours but is not regularly employed.

Among the options given on the question it seems the correct answer is option C.

Regulate big business.

Explanation: The "Square deal" was a domestic program which was a plan taken by the US president Theodore Roosevelt to provide equal chance to every one. He was the president of US during 1901 to 1909.

He described his 'Square Deal' program in three basic goals which were conservation of natural resources, control of corporations, and consumer protection.These three demands are often referred to as the "three C's" of Roosevelt's Square Deal. He aimed to help the middle class citizen with giving the equal opportunity to rise.

His plan was also to attack plutocracy and bad trusts while he protected the big businesses from the extreme demand of organized labor.He believed that government should abolish the corrupted connection between big business man and employee.Thus he wanted to regulate the big business with his Square deal plan.
