A similar thing occurred in the North. The main difference is that Northern Wage slaves were treated worse and lived in poorer conditions.

A northern worker could always quit his job and pursue opportunities. A slave wasn't allowed to. Big difference.

You obviously don't know what wage slavery was. No they couldn't quit their jobs. I do mean that literally.
