What made the men who controlled the industrial revolution so successful?

Them men who controlled the industrial revolution so successful by  making a change, they made life easier. they invented things such as the cotton gin, the tractor, light bulbs, steel plow, farm eqipment. these inventions gave them more time to work. they had longer days and fast pace days. the factories were improved, although there was houses that were not fit and not in shape, they lived in streets where the sewers did not work, there were diseases that spread, there was children working as young as 5 years old and women work from 5 am to 7 pm. the women were treated less than men, the men were dominant.
