Which phrase best describes American society in the early 1900s?

In the early 1900s, American society had a relatively small wealthy class and a large number of workers living in poverty or near poverty. Industrialization and expanding businesses helped the middle class grow, but that growth did not erase widespread economic hardship. Therefore, the best description is “a small wealthy class, a growing middle class, and a large class of working poor.”
