C. factory workers' lack of rights and poor working conditions

Explanation:

The industrialist would possess a production line and utilize laborers at low wages, bringing about large sums of money for himself. As capitalism expanded, the exploitation of workers expanded.

The conviction is that these workers would call for change. The change would include a change from private ownership of wealth for and methods for production to an open, or social, one. It is from this thought socialism develops, a financial system where there is open responsibility for and that the laborers, or the individuals who were recently persecuted, are presently ready to be in a position of economic autonomy and freedom.
