[QUOTE="Caustic Burno, post: 1283835, member: 694"] Slavery was never about owning slaves it was about power and money. With the upcoming industrial revolution it would have been cheaper not to have them. Just like the whole war was over power and money never the issue of slavery. Share cropping was much more efficient as you got to use the blacks and poor whites and didn't have to feed or shelter either. Always follow the dollar and it will lead you to Washington every time.
