Implies that there are no positives to the slave trade. Which implies it was done for no reason except idk racism or something. Slavery is incredibly immoral. But it wasn't done for no reason. Like mooreandrew said: If you ignore morality [slavery] was positive for everyone but the slaves. That pesky morality though is what makes the "positives" not worth the negatives It was also a negative for unskilled workers. Why pay someone to do simple labor when you can buy some slaves and make that investment back many times over on free labor? I am sure it didn't make the labor market any easier for poorer less skilled whites. It was mostly good for the wealthy whites.(or whatever the wealthy class was in other slavery practicing cultures/eras) --- My Mario Maker 2 Maker ID is J2K-RFD-K4G Even In sigs FOE! http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/000/665/328/d75.gif <cite>pikachupwnage posted [p:954511800] in A teacher ...
