that's fascinating - thanks for posting it. It's a very powerful picture.

This probably sounds a bit crass, but I had no idea slaves where so
expensive.

It seems that way to me as well. When the prevailing wage was less than 1 dollar a day, the return on investment seems skewed. Then again Adam Smith, proved that Slavery was uneconomical in "The Wealth of Nations" almost 100 years earlier. (He argued it's immorality earlier in "The Theory of Moral Sentiments")
