Answer 2

B. The economy blossomed as consumers had newfound wealth and credit to buy new products.

Step-by-step explanation:

The consumption in the 1920s increased because people's earnings also increased. People adopted a new way of living buy purchasing more products through new kinds of credit. Advertising of different products like cosmetics, clothing, cars and so on spread. This enticed the people to buy even more. Ford's mass production of cars allowed many people, not only the rich, to buy their own cars. This led to the blossoming of technology and the improvement of the country's economy.
