Slavery was not as prevalent in the North as it was in the South due to economic and geographic factors.

The key factor was the type of economy in the North versus the South.

Very quickly, the Northern economy became based on industry while the Southern economy was largely based on large scale plantation style farms.

The end result was that the South needed slaves more for their type of economy to be profitable.

What did factory owners do to prevent unions from forming?

RoseWind [281]

Answer: (4) They used force to end union activities.

Explanation: Business owners, don't like unions for many reasons. They need a great deal of flexibility in cutting wages, hiring and firing, and adding extra hours of work or trimming back work hours when need be. In fact, wages and salaries are a very big part of their overall costs. And even when business is good, small wage cuts, or holding the line on wages, can lead to higher profits. Business owners are used to being in charge, and they don't want to be hassled by people they have come to think of as mere employees, not as breadwinners for their families or citizens of the same city and country.
