In which John Green teaches you about the Market Revolution. In the first half of the 19th century, the way people lived and worked in the United States changed drastically. At play was the classic (if anything in a 30 year old nation can be called classic) American struggle between the Jeffersonian ideal of individuals sustaining themselves on small farms vs. the Hamiltonian vision of an economy based on manufacturing and trade. I'll give you one guess who won. Too late! It was Hamilton, which is why if you live in the United States, you probably live in a city, and are unlikely to be a farmer. Please resist the urge to comment about this if you live in the country and/or are a farmer. Your anecdotal experience doesn't change the fact that most people live in cities. In the early 19th century, new technologies in transportation and communication helped remake the economic system of the country. Railroads and telegraphs changed the way people moved goods and information around. The long and short of it is, the Market Revolution meant that people now went somewhere to work rather than working at home. Often, that somewhere was a factory where they worked for an hourly wage rather than getting paid for the volume of goods they manufactured. This shift in the way people work has repercussions in our daily lives right down to today. Watch as John teaches you how the Market Revolution sowed the seeds of change in the way Americans thought about the roles of women, slavery, and labor rights.

At 1: 10 he doesn't say the name of the party and just expects us to know. As a student being forced to use resources like these during the quarantine, I just decided to watch all of these. It doesn't really sync with my curriculum I'm just kinda doing work. I tried to do some research and asked around, and I looked it up, but it doesn't seem as though there was one party in power. would anybody help me out?

Why are people talking about tests or trying to debunk the wage gap? Like who cares? This man just broke down in 14 minutes how our country went from free people with meaningful work to a country of owner and worker with meaningless work, controlled by the ticking of a clock. Does anyone have any meaningful thoughts on this?

I don-t fundamentally see a difference between the agricultural mentality of -You work, you get to eat, you don-t work, you starve- and the industrial mentality of -You work, you get paid and get to eat, you don-t work, you don-t get paid and don-t get to eat-

The steamboats on the Mississippi River sounds like something in Tom Sawer were someone drowns and they get silver filled bread to make the dead bodies float up toward the water

The Era of Good Feelings ends in 1828 with the rise of the coalition that got Andrew Jackson elected. That election marks the beginning of the modern Democratic party.

This episode is so incredibly relevant to what's happening now --- and as someone born to the working class, this speaks volumes.
