What Will Happen to the Plantations of the American South?

In the 1800s, plantation owners created an entire financial network based entirely off of the quote unquote value of their slaves. The Southern planters were constantly in debt and they tried to solve this problem with the only thing they know how to do, which is slavery. One of the big ways I try to solve this with slavery is just whipping people harder. It's brutal and horrible. And yeah, you know, this is a system that is who's the efficiency of which is just built on profound human violence.
