melamori03 [73]

Answer:

After the Mexican war (1846- 1848), the issue of slavery was reopened. It was discussed whether slavery should be allowed in the new territories in the West. Arguments against allowing slavery include the following:

  1. Allowing slavery in the new Western states <u>would compromise the balance between the number of states that allowed slavery and those that forbid it.</u>
  2. White workers would be affected by allowing slavery, as the <u>degradation of white labor</u> would take place.
  3. The issue of slavery was a part of <u>the struggle for power between North and South</u>. The area which won the slavery discussion would be considered as a winner of this political game.
