Progressives+and+Muckrakers(1-4)

Muckrakers tried to reform the unsafe conditions of factories, political corruption, and social injustice. They were against trust(oil, beef, tobacco), prision conditions, exploration of natural resources, the tax system, the insurance industry, pension pratices, and food processing. As long as there's someone who feels something isn't right in this country, there will always be muckrakers in one form or another.
