Were there ever any documented cases of slave owners being rich

Slaves were expensive though.

Adjusted for inflation, you're talking 10,000 a head for even the entry level basic bitch field negroes.

You could easily get into the 60/70k range for slaves from the parts of Africa that knew how to farm, so you could buy that expert knowledge of rice paddies or sweet potatoes and stuff.

You'd be better off selling them.

dude wat

No? Why would there be?

Slaves were worth a lot of money. You could sell them even at low prices to buy infinitely more food than eating them.

Not only that, the idea of slavery was, contrary to popular belief, economically inefficient. Supporting the headcount from a viable perspective out of the available subsistence without giving them money t support productivity even further directly inhibited industries which might grow otherwise, not to mention the additional employment necessary because of decreased morale.

Did any psychopathic rich person ever breed their slaves only to serve them as food and sell them off to others?

I remember a case of people in the midwest during the wild west era doing that to travelers who passed by, the family eventually fled when they were wanted and were never found.

Weird question to ask...

It'd be a near certainty that they'd sooner sell their slaves and just buy food than eat their slaves.

Eating your slave would be comparable to eating the leather of your car seat instead of selling your fucking car.

This sounds like a great horror movie. A rich slave owning family who dons those mercury filled caps slowly descind into madness, making rash decisions, and going broke. They then completely go mad and hunt the slaves in the dead of night to feed themselves for sustinence. Kind of a The Most Dangerous Game meets The Bates Motel meets Django Unchained meets The Crazies meets Wrong Turn.

>In Karl Marx's critique of political economy, commodity fetishism is the perception of the social relationships involved in production, not as relationships among people, but as economic relationships among the money and commodities exchanged in market trade. As such, commodity fetishism transforms the subjective, abstract aspects of economic value into objective, real things that people believe have intrinsic value.[1]

I think the only case of cannabalism to occur in these United States was the Donner Party.

Weird AF thread.

Then the slave would eat you, anon.

Untrue. Slaves had greater output per cost than non-slaves.

>he never imagined himself as a kinky slave-owner

I don't think it was lawful to eat slaves. There are laws about treating them a certain way both in Romam law and in the bible.

>>2307283
Yes, see your own pic related. It's based on a true story you know.

The essential factor to why the south supported and forced the division of races for so long is because so much of the south was so poor that most people liked the idea of having a lower class citizen than them.
