Thesis for Progressivism Topics

The different theses that each group came up with:

1. New expectations for government to act like a referee, promoting fairness. 
2. People solved problems but also their solutions sometimes created new problems. 
3. People looked to the government to protect the physical safety/ health/ lives of citizens from a variety of modern threats. 
4. People wanted to really improve society, moving forward, improving people's minds/health/ and lifestyle. 


Grand Thesis: 
In the progressive era, many new reforms were made to help protect and improve society's everyday life by focusing on the health and well being of humans. However, while solving issues they created new ones on which people looked to the government to serve as a referee to solve and promote fairness among individuals. Solving these issues helped introduce new technologies and helped the society move forward as a whole.
