PLantation owners in Virginia and Maryland preferred West African slaves because tobacco prices had declined in the late 17th century and the plantation owners were struggling with the input cost incurred in tobacco cultivation.Initially,they were able to manage with British indentured servants but as British economy grew,they stopped coming to USA.Hence Virginia and Maryland plantation owners preferred West African slaves because tobacco cultivation is labor intensive in both cultivation and processing though farms became larger and more efficient.
Dear King George III of Great Britain,
I am writing to you because we the American colonies are hereby declaring our absolute independence from Great Britain. I write only after long thought about the many issues between us. Some issues and events of the last few years include and the increasing presence of troops in Boston, as well as the military events in Lexington and in Concord.
You see, in the American colonies, we believe that the purpose of government is to ensure and protect the welfare of all its citizens. Government should guarantee an equitable democracy, and not the abusive imposition of taxes. It should follow the principles of John Locke, such as serve the people and the right of the citizens to have representation in the government. These ideas mean that the government must ensure the right to life, freedom, and property. The role of government in natural law is to serve its citizens and secure their rights.
Unfortunately, you have not lived up to these expectations as a ruler. One example of how you have disappointed us is the increased taxes for many goods. This affects our rights because it limits our right to trade. Another example is the Naturalization Act 1740. This affects our rights because prohibits the migration of foreigners and the population of our territory. A third example is your refusal to allow our participation within the political decisions. This affects our rights because it does not allow our self-determination in our states.
Please remember that we did try to reason with you first. Remember when we suggested a series of requests for our colonies, and then you refuse it? Or, there was the time we tried to associate as citizens and you sent your troops to attack us.
Because you have failed to address our concerns, the American colonists are declaring complete independence from you and from your country, Great Britain. We are no longer part of the British Empire and from now on, we will have our own autonomous government.

The man for Adam Smith is naturally selfish and always seeks to satiate his own interests. However, for Smith this is economically positive. When the social group seeks to maximize its interests, the economy is stimulated through the exchange and sale of goods in a market where everyone wants to obtain benefits. That is why Smith maintains that it is not of the benevolence of the butcher that we have our dinner, but rather because the butcher has the ambition to profit, and therefore provides the meat. When all individuals act together for their ambitions, society gains through the supply and consumption of products. This is the mechanism called the "invisible hand" by Adam Smith.
