What things kept working conditions so poor in factories?

a. lack of money
b. greed
c. not enough qualified people
d. desire for big profits

The answer is B & D.

Greed and desire for big profits are related. The owners of companies would ensure that they keep input factors of production to their minimal and yield maximum output. This means not caring for the employees’ safety and their working conditions because this would cost the employer more money. This greed for profits would results in injury of employees and poor health conditions.

explanation: we can only guess at how our actions may be perceived in the future. doing something really big like killing lots of people, saving lots of people, affecting the lives of lots of people is a sure fire way of being remembered in historical records. we can also make a difference in the history records by being a small influence on something bigger, whether that is as a civil servant, scientist or artist.

of course you could argue that we all affect history just as tiny cogs in a   bigger machine.

if you mean how do people influence our opinions of things which have already happened, then simply by writing a book which looks at things form a different perspective and trying to convince people that this perspective is more accurate or truthful. people do it all the time i.e. richard the third was a terrible or was he? plenty would disagree, it's just that their views aren't the most widely known.n:
