The correct answer is C) They saw slavery as a “positive good” for enslaved workers.

Most white Southerners viewed the practice of slavery “positive good” for enslaved workers.

This statement is true. The owners of large plantations in the South favored the use of slaves in the farm fields. Indeed, the economy of the Southern states depended so much on slaves because owners had to produce good cash crops in order to trade and export to European countries. That is why they were against the abolition of slavery, although they received so much pressure from the Northern states.

Answer:

C) They saw slavery as a “positive good” for enslaved workers.

Explanation:

White Southerners safeguarded the foundation of slavery on various fronts. They said that it was important and they said that it was not taboo, yet they likewise contended that it was a positive good. Southerners contended that slavery was a financial need. They contended that there was no real way to get anybody to do the kind of work that was required for tobacco (and later cotton) development without pressuring them. They contended that subjection was in this way totally fundamental for the Southern economy.  

The Southerners additionally contended that there was no motivation to believe that slavery was indecent. They looked to somewhere around three sources to help this case. In the first place, they looked to Biblical times. They noted that there was slavery in the Old Testament and the New Testament and that Jesus never opposed the practice. Second, they took a gander at classical antiquity. They contended that the Greeks and the Romans had slaves even as they were the wellspring of Western development. At last, they took a gander at the time of the Founding Fathers. They noticed that the general population who composed the Constitution had slaves. In view of these precedents, they contended that there was no motivation to think slavery wasn't right.

The Shays rebellion demostrated to the governement the need for a strong central government, one that could stand firm on basis of its laws and the constitution.This was achieved through the first revolution under the new government that led to the formation of a central government with strong powers and control.

Kaylis [27]
The goal of the writers of the Lecompton Constitution is humanitarian aid to slaves. It was proposed for the state of Kansas in response to the anti-slavery position of the 1855 Topeka constitution and other free state advocates. The constitution protected the slave holder rights, enshrined slavery and allowed voters the choice of allowing more slaves to enter the territory.
