Positive and negative effects of "laissez-faire"

This is what I have so far:
Positive
-more wealth would be distributed among businesses
-industries in Britain earned lots of updated technologies that improved industrial processes

Negative
-workers didn't get to earn much, because the business owners kept their wages low, in order to increase incomes
