Whatever evil the North was trying to purvey as you all see it, the south was prospering off of slavery. Period.

As difficult as this is to grasp, New York and Washington DC were profiting more from slavery than was the entire South.

Here's the map again. 73-85% of that money piled on New York came from slave production.
