Assuming the south won the war.
What kind of tax benefits would freeing a slave yield? Could you write off an elder slave for depreciation? Could you buy bonds on a nigger baby and wait for the nigger to grow up/reach maturity?
The Romans put a tax on manumission because too many slaves freed at once caused problems.
I think it would be good to capitalize and depreciate, but how much to depreciate is kind of unpredictable.
Slaves are already bonded, so that wouldn't make sense. A fowards or futures contract would be sensible, as it is with every other commodity.
