Answer:

Factory owners wanted to maximize profits.

Explanation:

As factories were being built, businesses were in need of workers. With a long line of people willing to work, employers could set wages as low as they wanted because people were willing to do work as long as they got paid - which means they wanted to maximize their profits regardless of their workers' welfare.

Owners, who were only concerned with making a profit, were satisfied because labor costed less.

The black abolitionist henry highland garnet decried those who wished to rise in rebellion to throw off their shackles of slaver
kap26 [50]
This is true. He supported ideas of taking political action instead of rising in rebellion. He believed that African-Americans should have their own peace of land where they could live freely and not suffer from harassment. He also supported the idea of not buying anything that was made by slaves which was also a political action.
