B. Factory workers
Factory workers generally benefited the least from the early development of laissez-faire capitalism in Europe. During this period, many factory workers faced harsh working conditions, long hours, low wages, and little to no labor rights. The focus on minimal government intervention allowed factories to operate under exploitative conditions, which often left workers struggling to make a living.
