What impact did slavery have on the southern economy? and how did it effect famillies?

The southern economy depended very much on slavery, using slaves to pick cotton and other things for the farmers. Normally the more slaves you had, the richer you were. Slaves were very important to the southern economy because southerners depended solely on slaves' labor. The families were affected when they could no longer keep slaves so the South was very mad because this was their main source of production.
