The economic system of the agrarian southern states became wholly dependent on slave labor for cheap agricultural production. Because of this cheap labor source, there was little incentive to industrialize.
It was essentially a self-perpetuating economic system.

Huge European demand for American cotton + pre-existing free labor source + greed.
Nah, I'm just kidding actually, it was all just a big prank.

We needed them for labor.
Not for obtaining manpower but for lynching
Theyve loved cruelty lynching non-whites people
Fucking insular and very collective minded
Rich plantation owners wanted to keep the status quo and keep their shekels
Because everyone who migrated there once upon a time was an opportunist and that's why they saw (and still see) other humans as means of production, nothing more.
Cotton and the weak economy of the South. The South wouldn't have joined the Union if slavery had been barred by the US constitution.

It was because of industrialization that slavery continued. Fat European markets wanted cotton and technological innovations like the cotton gin made production even faster. The only technology that wasn't catching up was getting the cotton off the plant.
