Come on, now you are making things up. < So the british ended slavery where they couldn't make a buck (pound) off the slaves, but keep slavery in areas where they could make big bucks off the backs of the people and their resources. > The USA didn't end slavery because they couldn't make a buck off it. Plenty of Americans wanted to keep having slaves but they were "outvoted", even without said slaves or women being allowed to vote.
