The correct answer is small upcountry farmers had little money to purchase slaves to operate the cotton gin, leaving the industry to low country farmers.
The cotton gin was an invention made by Eli Whitney in 1793. The cotton gin was a machine that easily removed seeds from cotton. Before this invention, cleaning cotton was a long and tedious process.

Essenes held themselves to a higher standard of piety - including voluntary poverty, abstinence, and other forms and degrees of asceticism. Additionally, they lived in a tighter community (Jerusalem had an "Essene Quarter") and may have influenced the early Christian community (of Acts 1-11). Some of them took a more radical approach on this communalism and established the community of Qumran.
