The New Industrial Social Class System
During the First Industrial Revolution, the specialization of labor had not reached the point to allow for complete social mobility. Therefore, I called it a new "Industrial Caste System."
Did the Second Industrial Revolution provide more social mobility to end this Industrial Caste system? If so, for whom? In not, what problems existed?

Interesting point. I will argue that the new class system provided for the most advancement possible EVER in history.
For the AP kids, remember your WSI when you studied Greece, Rome, and other civs. Never was there any real mobility.
For all you guys--economics drive this system. Education drives this system. Hope drives this system. What keeps people from not progressing?
