People like Edison, Ford, Olds, Benz, and Bell were able to not only create products that would gain revenue, but they also created more jobs. These men were different from most entrepreneurs and businessmen of their time. These men were smart enough to use their own inspirations and the inspirations of others to create products that would appeal to the United States consumers. They understood what the consumer wanted, so they would work hard in order to produce it. With products being consumed at high rates, because of the high supplies and demands, the country was booming. Jobs were everywhere, for everyone and the economy of the United States no longer solely relied on the agricultural business now.
