Progressive Era - The Jungle Questions

1) What qualities did Sinclair believe a person must have to succeed in Packingtown?
```If there were a successful person in Packingtown, they'd have to be knave. Being honest and trying hard was not the way to get to the top. The fastest and most triumphant way to be successful is through stealth and lying.

2)According to the passage, what is the plant owner's main goal.
``` The plant owner's goal is to squeeze out every last ounce of effort and hard work from a person, then get rid of them and find a new worker. He is not caring of the people he hires, only the work that is produced. 

3) What does Sinclair mean when he says, "...there was no place in it where a man counted for anything against a dollar....?"
``` Essentially he is meaning that it does not matter how you work or what you speak of, it is all about the money. Money is the prize possession and the motivation.
