Prosperity and tolerance – JAMES PERON

Of late I’ve seen more discussion on the idea that slavery made America prosperous. That got me to thinking about the link between slavery, intolerance, bigotry in general, and economic prosperity.

My conclusion is these vices increase poverty, not prosperity. While some individual slave-owners prospered, most people were harmed, even those who were never slaves. The slave states economically lagged behind non-slave states. In fact, one legacy of slavery is that those regions of America remain economically behind the rest of the country today, a century and a half after the abolition of slavery.
