These should be played on all TV networks. They should be played in all learning institutions. From kindergarten all the way through the largest colleges. We used to be a wonderful self sufficient country of proud, hard working, creative people. Im 63 , I've seen us be Great!!! Sure would be nice to see again

[@johnpowell5433]

Films like these should be shown in schools to demonstrate the pride and prudence of our grandfathers and grandmothers.

[@Mercmad]

A collection of the messages in the interludes would make fascinating listening and should be drummed into the young.

@@matekochkoch Unregulated industry? Well your name says it all.

[@MarioMastar]

Well they already show sh8t like this in schools. It's certainly interesting but flanderizing the past only makes people wonder why today is so sh8t and the only logical conclusion is that those who were filmed in the past really were good at only telling us the most optimistic takes. XD Plus they have modern versions of this show like "how it's made" and many other educational shows about modern technology all over that shows what we're doing TODAY, and all without the flanderizing. I mean when I was a kid, everyone talked about World War 2 and for some reaosn the Romans and Greeks as if they were the most important times in world history and nothing else really mattered, but as I got older, history classes started to get more generalized and focus more on our modern takeaway than glorification. So it does really depend on the cirriculum. I feel bad for FLoridians who have to be taught that technology didn't exist until 300 years ago, only white people had any semblence of intelligence, and any thoughts not protrayed in some egotist's version of the bible is sacriledge. But DeSantis couldn't ban internet....nor common sense...

Thank you for preserving these Periscope! We love watching these; folks used to show real pride in their work. Please keep em coming!

I grew up in Marion, Oh and lived by the Marion Power Shovel on David St and W. Center St. They built MASSIVE machinery no doubt! They built the crawler/transporter for NASA. My grandpa (my mom's dad) went down to Florida to help build it when he worked for the Power Shovel.

Love ‘Industry on Parade’ !

[@timothylynskey9224]

Very educational the innovation of these companies was incredible…..also we must remember no computers

[@MarioMastar]

I actually really love how these inventions helped lead to the eventual development of the computer. It's less we didn't "have them" and more we didn't have the infrastucture. Computers did exist, but the fine control and manipulation of electricity required took too much precision to manufacture before the war. After the war(s) stopped, there was time for the govt to focus on improving speed and quality instead of us throwing a ton of metal at countries around the world and blowing sh8t up which was borderline useless to everyone. Things are so much better now thanks to focusing on OUR needs and not just what's popular at the time.

[@65gtotrips]

‘Pepperidge Farm remembers’ was a staple TV commercial for decades

[@chrishamilton4442]

My Dad was a welder for MPS from 1960-75. He worked on the transport crawlers.

[@lewiemcneely9143]

Thanks, Periscope! Marion and Bucyrus sure made some BIG diggers and all the rest was very interesting but the one about Bible making was special! AND the one about the 'government' balancing the budget. What a joke! Thanks again!

[@Goalsplus]

Materialistically, we seem to have invented and made nearly everything many decades ago.

[@kaptainkaos1202]

Now all they invent are ideas. Like algorithms, Bitcoin or other silly sh*t. Also thinking their company should be worth billions while they lose millions.

[@benjaminp8770]

True. Invention has been in a depression for the last few decades. Even movies now are just a remake.

[@MarioMastar]

Pretty much....a lot of the biggest leaps in technology were over the previous century. and even then it's more so optimization. Smart people seeing patterns and building machines to make these faster for a larger population.

Really cool time capsule

[@wdmm94]

At 18:00, "No other system, whether it be socialist or communist, has even come close to America's magnificent production record in this land of freedom." Enter China.

[@12time12]

they didn’t need to build their industry from the ground up without the know-how or funding issues like folks back in the old days faced. Up until recently, China was guaranteed to get the FDI needed for just about any project. Covid supply chain failure and other issues has spooked folks who usually invested in China. Just like back then, things change and will continue to evolve. Now manufacturers are moving to countries like Vietnam, and Mexico is gaining huge benefits as well.

Mine is from taiwan. :-/ It's actually a pretty good machine, but I would have rather found some old school American iron.

[@jaydensmoak1201]

It’s a pure shame watching this and seeing how it is now. China could cut off its manufacturing for us and leave us completely crippled as we’re over here trying to figure out if we’re a boy or a girl.

[@MarioMastar]

There's nothing stopping us from working these kind of jobs, but as the "inflation" segments show, the problem is we americans all act like we're worth more money than everyone around us and thus demand wages that cause artificial inflation. SOMEONE has to product the stuff we want so much money to spend on. So the fact that our dollar is weak has entirely to do with everyone trying to outspend each other's money doing youtube and tiktok and crypto nonsense instead of actually doing anything productive. At least back then, if you didn't work, you were litearlly shoveling sh8t for a living, there was no internet to give anyone the "easy way out" That's the only difference.

[@12time12]

Companies used to care about employees, and thus employees care about companies. Now companies only care about shareholders and consider employees expendable. Banning stock buybacks would be a good start to ending solely profit driven management.

[@christianguenther1276]

Just wondering, it's 2021 now, how many of these companies, that use American know-how and manufacturing are STILL in existence? That's what I thought🤣

[@malcolmmarzo2461]

Today we could make "Chinese Communist Industry on Parade."' Showing disciplined, industrious people doing mass production driving an ever-increasing standard of living. As a child of the 1950's who remembers the era the contrast is ironic.

[@booklover6753]

Don't kid yourself Malcolm. They have a lousy standard of living. They are nothing more than worker drones.
