America. Was. Built. By. Free. Men.

Slavery hurt America. We're still paying for that shit. None of it was free, and it was vastly inferior to the industrialization of the free states.

Slavery was a net negative for Americans, but a net positive for the 150,000 black slaves lucky enough to come to the U.S., instead of the Caribbean or South America. Only a fraction of the slaves in the Atlantic trade were lucky enough to end up here.
