Remember you are asking for an opinion. Since the constitution was signed, there had been constant debate about the way the south made its living. Rutledge (South Carolina), though I cannot find a reference for this, would not sign the constitution unless the question of slavery was not made an issue.
From then until the civil war began in 1861, many compromises were tried and most failed. Kansas was a particularly bad scene.
I think the south saw its way of life completely threatened by people who could not work out reasonable alternatives. So my opinion is that the statement you make does not reflect everything that was tried.
Phoenicians may have discovered the dye as early as 1750 BC. The Phoenicians established a second production center for the dye in Mogador, in present-day Morocco.
