If I lived in the 1800s, I would be thankful for the muckraker, Thomas Nast. I would be thankful for him because he exposed Boss Tweed. Boss Tweed had taken over 3 billion dollars from N.Y. I wouldn't have lived there, but It would be a relief that people like him can and will be punished.
Transcontinental Railroad I feel like the transcontinental railroad had the biggest impact on the West. It allowed people to transport goods and supplies to the West and East. The railroad gave jobs to lots of people. Lastly the Transcontinental Railroad allowed people to communicate easily.
