Slavery held the south in bondage to an archaic way of life.
a. true
b. false

The answer was true.  In the North, industry was now growing and from its growth many Northern States became wealthy.  It also ushered in progressive ideas where many believe that is better to hire workers and pay them well rather than keep slaves for labor.  Those who work for better pay get more done than those who are in bondage.  Slavery closed the minds of people in the South.  Apart from clinging to an outdated system, slavery is a cruel trade wherein people are treated like property and made to serve others against their will.  Because they didn’t have enough industries, they fell behind the North.
