every other western nation (without bloodshed) and because of the economic restraints of using forced labor.
Mechanization would have ended slavery, possibly within a half decade. Also, slavery has its own costs and producers would realize that paying voluntary workers an agreed upon wage was a better way to increase productivity relative to costs.
Slavery in the southern states would not have sniffed the 20th century.
