More White Collars!
By 1956, most of Americans no longer had blue collar jobs. There were more people working in the office and making more money with white collar jobs. This went on from the 1950s to today. This was going on all across America, North and South, East and West. The cause of this surge in white collars is getting out of WWII. Without the need for supplies across seas, a lot of people didn't need to work hard in factories. The reason for taking white collar jobs was because they didn't want to work too hard and they wanted a job that they liked. The result of this was more businesses starting and slower productions in factories. This was significant for all people that received white collar jobs because they got to do what they wanted to and got paid for it.
