That’s a lame, and sh-t argument. Once a practice, despite being extant for thousands of years, is rendered illegal, because of the externalities caused, by the legitimate codification under concurrent and common process, then we must abandon that now-criminal enterprise and find new means of producing income.

Slavery is too expensive compared to consumers, industry, and labor (or in our case, industry and immigrant and migrant labor.)

Slavery was the primary reason the Romans didn’t develop the industrial revolution. Combined with Christianity, Dark ages resulted. Same thing as woke and immigrants now.

The question is only how to pay for the transition. IMO at the time the suggestion was to borrow money and ship them back to Africa. They chose not to. As in the present, the argument is that we can deport the millions of illegals, and those who shouldn’t be here because they are unfit or won’t adapt to our norms traditions values and institutions.

The truth is that it is cheaper to pay these short-term, but high, direct costs, than the long-term ongoing hidden costs. (The Dominican republic revoked all passports issued to Haitians relatively recently. There have been plenty of times in history groups have been deported or asked to leave territories because they’re creating political, social, and economic conflict. We will very certainly go through one of those phases within the next eighty years both here and in Europe.
