During the late nineteenth century , The Amercan economy and business expanded throughout  variety American enterprises there were variety new inventions that helped American business become more successful . Most people throught American was on the rise.  The Republican party helped change American to become more business oriented .

Lincoln Steffens was a rising star who studied at the finest school in the Unite state and Europe , he also joined  the New York  Evening Post. He designed his first article that alert the american public about different  corruption . S.S Mc clure  is a irish immigrant who decide to track down inner working  and leader of different corporations. His main persuade is to show the American people all the different corruption that were going on.

Another material that attracted Journalistic attention was the public food and drugs . They spent less time on manufacturing food that was not health. Some products cause cancer and other cause addiction to tobacco , and  other material that help enlarge female breasts. Most American people were unaware  that material were destroying the American people health and transforming  men , women  and children into drug addicts.

I decided to choose this chapter because I wanted to learn about the different corruptions during the later nineteenth century  and I also compared different corruptions during the 21 century . Unfortunately today the level of corruption  is the same. http en wikipedia .org / wiki/ Lincoln Steffens, http// www.
