If only we could go back in time and prevent the Slave Ship Owners and Slave Buyers (you know who they were) from bringing slaves to America. Think about it. We wouldn't have had a Civil War. We wouldn't have slaughtered 800,000 white American men and boys. These American men and boys would have lived and married and had babies and we might not have even needed the hundreds of thousands of immigrants that we took in following that war, as we would have had enough existing workforce to get the jobs done.
Think what the U.S. would look like today if all those original hard-working Americans had lived and procreated.
Too bad those suffering the cost now and forever after were not the ones who got the massive profits in the beginning. Sad how that keeps happening, isn't it?
The census of 1830 lists 965 free black slave owners in Louisiana, owning 4,206 slaves. The state of South Carolina, lists 464 free blacks owning 2,715 Black and White slaves. How ironic it is that so many blacks owned so many slaves in South Carolina. Yet, no one seemed to mention this during the flag controversy. Black people owned White people.https://www.ironbarkresources.com/slaves/whiteslaves05.htm

Forced labor in Sub-Saharan Africa is estimated at 660,000. This includes people involved in the illegal diamond mines of Sierra Leone and Liberia, which is also a direct result of the civil wars in these regions.

Any country that imported slaves ends up paying out the nose.

Yes. It is very sad.
