The Progressive Movement was full of contradictions. The movement simultaneously worked to both expand and limit the rights of the American people. It promoted the urban-industrial society which often led to the poor working and living conditions it opposed. It opposed trust corporations but supported the philanthropic efforts undertaken from those corporations. It also promoted individual freedom while simultaneously increasing government regulation of food, entertainment, reproduction, and education.
