                  The Evolution of American Business
0 Many managers and workers are losing their jobs in major manufacturing firms.
Businesses
00 in the United States have become so such productive that fewer workers are needed in the
41 industrial sector(industries that produce some goods). Due to the increasing impact of
42 technology and global competition, shouldn’t we are be concerned about the future and the
43 prospect of higher unemployment and lower incomes? Where will the jobs be there when
44 today’s students graduate? These important questions force us to look carefully at the
45 U. S. economy and its future. Let’s begin by examining the history to give you a better
46 understanding of where economy is now and where it’s going to. The United States has
47 been a leader in the economic development since the beginning of the 1900s. The
48 agricultural industry led to the way, providing food for the United States and much of the
49 world. That industry became so efficient through the use of technology that the number of
50 famers has dropped from about a third of the population to less than 2 percent of. The
51 a number of farms in the United States has declined from some 5. 7 million at the turn of the
52 century to about 2 million today. However, average farm size is now about 455
acres versus 160 acres. Owners of the most profitable 1 percent of these farms
now control 30 percent of the farmland. In other words, agriculture is still a
major industry in the United States. What has changed is that millions of smaller
farms were replaced by some that are huge, some that are large, and some that
are small.
