Just for sake of discussion, again, was slavery really so wrong?

It was an economic necessity while it existed. Moreover, it brought a whole new type of immigrants into America, increasing our diversity beyond what it would have been otherwise.

Good points all.

Is forced labor wrong? When it happened, is whipping and assaulting another human wrong? Can one person actually 'own' another? Is such a relationship right or wrong?
