How did rising prices and stagnant wages in 1904 affect workers' politics?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It reduced workers' real income and increased unrest

When prices rise while wages remain unchanged, workers’ real income falls: the same wage buys less food, fuel, clothing, and other necessities. This decline in purchasing power created hardship and increased anger toward employers and the Tsarist government. Economic grievances could therefore become political demands, strikes, demonstrations, and wider opposition, especially when combined with poor working conditions and the pressures of war. The situation did not make workers ministers, transfer factories to peasants, or end the war immediately. Hence, option A correctly explains the political effect.
