Explain why westward expansion created a clash between sectional interests in Missouri ?

With this willing and cheap workforce, the North did not require a slave system. Although some northerners found the institution of slavery morally reprehensible, most did not believe in complete racial equality either. Slavery became even more divisive when it threatened to expand westward because non-slave holding white settlers did not want to compete with slaveholders in the new territories.

<em>The service would most likely be handled by a special district is public transportation. </em>
