various kinds are made. There is an ever increasing optimism about the future
of economic growth.
Much capita is invested in machinery or "heavy" industry. More labor is employed.
More raw materials are required. As one part of the economy develops. Other parts
are affected. For example. A great expansion in automobiles results in an
expansion of the steel, a great expansion in automobiles results in an expansion
of the steel, glass, and rubger industries. Roads are required. Thus the cement
and machinery industries are stimulated. Demand for labor and materials results
in greater prosperity for workers and suppliers of raw materials, including
farmers. This increases purchasing power and the volume of goods bought and sold.
Thus prosperity is diffused among the various portions of the population. This
prosperity period may continue to rise and rise without on apparent end. However.
A time comes when this phase reaches a peak and stops spiraling upwards. This
is the end of the expansion phase.
