This is entirely untrue. People left their share cropping farms to work in the factories precisely because it improved their standard of living. Just because it isn’t an improvement over yours doesn’t make it an improvement over theirs. Factory owners paid enough to incentivize people to work there, just like in any other capitalist structure. AFAIK there were no forced labor conditions in industrial England.
