Answer:
1. Slavery was a form of cheap labor. By outlawing this all slave owners would have to free their slaves and find a new source of labor
2. Great Britain offered to free any slaved that fought for them which helped threat Britain in there efforts in the Revolutionary War.
3. Doesn't make sense : If it was outlawed when the Declaration was first put in place then the slaves would have been freed almost a century earlier then they were.
4. Men should be equal amongst other. Yet slavery is the direct opposite of this. Why must we have equality if it will not be upheld. Slavery should have been abolished the moment this statement came out. "All men are created equal". You must not go back on your word if we want equality.
5. I'll give you something for 5 even tho it's class. It's possible that Thomas Jefferson said men for men. Back during these times a wife was meant to stay home and cook, clean and watch the kids. Not have a voice in politics so it is very possible.
Explanation: Ok that's it. (:
