Answer:
The South benefited by keeping slave labor. The North did not.
Explanation:
The South relied on old money and land and power handed down through generations. The main industry of landowners was extensive arable farming. This required a high volume of manual labor. However, paying labor and fair working condition and equal rights would have reduced the labor and reduced a land owner’s capacity to make a profit. Slaves provided labor. The North developed a free-labor industrial economy. This benefited from manufacturing but also benefited from the employees to be able to spend money and make money for themselves and aid economic growth for the entire country.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although you did not attach any context to the above-mentioned quotation or further references, we are going to assume that you are referring to Solidarity, the social moment in Poland that turned into a worker union that opposed the Communist government.
I have to say that a don't agree with the statement ‘Solidarity died as quickly as it started, having achieved nothing."
I consider that the Solidarity movement in Poland accomplished many things. Indeed, the strike of August 14, 1980, changed the political scenario in Eastern Europe.
The leader of the movement was Lech Walesa. Years later he won the presidential election of Poland. His victory and Vacláv Havel’s victory to become President of Czechoslovakia signified the transformation of Eastern Europe from dominance by the Soviet Union to new democracies.
So what started as a union movement in Communist time in Poland, ended up being a political party that got to power when Lech Walesa became the President of Poland in December 1990.
The states and the congress.
