Write a three paragraph essay on the relationship between business and labor.

Is the coexistence of labor and business important? Yes, but with every question there are extremist answers. Labor is identified as work that is either mentally or physically taxing. A business is a company or an organization that sells goods or services, with an expectation to receive profit in return. With these definitions in mind, it is obvious how the two subjects relate. Businesses are run by labor. This labor is typically tough, but not too harsh, otherwise it would be deemed illegal. Workers also get rewarded for their labor by having a wage. Different jobs/tasks require different types and levels of labor.  

The Robber Barons were owners of important industries such as the steal, oil, and railroad industries. Despite the Robber Barons being social elites and economic elites, their methods of labor were frowned upon. The Robber Barons wanted to get the maximum amount of income they could for their businesses and themselves, which led to the change in labor methods. These methods were – and still are – considered morally wrong. The methods they used included child labor, underpayment of workers, limited care for the health and safety of the workers, and paying the government to allow them to continue with these illegal practices. But were the Robber Barons right or wrong?

The Robber Barons were in the wrong due to their methods, but in the right due to how they helped America progress. The steal, oil, and railroad industries were all extremely important industries in the US that allowed the US to progress the way it did. The Robber Barons are the reason America passed through the Gilded Age when and how they did. Not only this, but the harsh labor methods that they enforced upon their workers led to the creation of new rules regarding labor. During the time period in which the Robber Barons controlled most of America’s main industries, there were very few rules and regulations about labor. Now, there are rules that are in place to ensure the safety of workers, and to make sure that they are treated properly.  

In conclusion, the Robber Barons’ methods were morally incorrect, but acted as an eye-opener as to what rules needed to be made to better working environments for workers. Additionally, without the Robber Barons, America wouldn’t be the industrial powerhouse it is today.
