I'm not sure if the South's "free labor" was an economic advantage. Makes much more economic sense in the long run to adopt machinery/automation to replace slave labor.
A biography I read on Nat Turner made that claim.

What the free labor argument made sense or not it was the main objection of business owners in the north.

I'm sure there were some people who thought "Why don't we just kill 'em?", I don't know about "many people" though.

I propose that we learn from Trump and communicate in short, direct, and uncomplicated bursts.

SAD!
