The situation in the US was different. Were slaves being used on vast farms harvesting a single cash crop in Europe? Without knowing the full history of slavery in Europe, besides knowing they abolished it before the industrial revolution, I can guess not. There wasn't as strong of an incentive in favor as there was in southern states, where cotton thrived.

Slavery will never become redundant, we must fight for abolishment.
