What was the greatest economic attraction of slave labour for plantation owners?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Earning higher profits through controlled labour at very low cost

Enslaved people had no freedom to negotiate wages, contracts, or leave work like free labourers. Plantation owners could coerce and control their labour while paying little or no wage, which increased profits from crops such as sugar and coffee. Option C describes free wage labour, the opposite of slavery. Exam tip: link the economic basis of slavery with low cost, strict control, and high profit.
