Nurses had to gain certificates of competence in order to perform tasks referred to as extended roles, leaving minimal scope for nurses to take control of decisions necessary for patient care delivery (Bowler and Mallik, 1998). Thus nurses' expanded roles at this time appeared to be task orientated, and served the needs of doctors rather than necessarily those of patients.In

Women were not able to work and the building of houses created overpopulated areas. There was always a cause and effect. The effect was mostly negative. People were not benefiting from the industries.
A major problem in the United States was immigration. There had been so many immigrants coming that it caused the United States to get overpopulated. This led to nativism.
