Why is the Deep South shit and economically poor?

The Deep South is only poor by US standards. Outside of the US, their states are among the wealthiest in the world.

Because it was colonized by the descendants of the economically backward Cavaliers and Borderers. The North, meanwhile, was colonized by the forward-thinking Puritans and Quakers, and is now one of the richest and best educated places in the world.

Slavery. Since the 1900s it has rebounded. Alot of Northern industry has moved south bc of lower wages. But slavery messed up the area. It was mostly agricultural and couldn't keep up with the north. But give it another 20 years and the south will be alot wealthier.

>Why is the Deep South shit and economically poor?
Low wages (including zero wages for a period) reduces the social cost of reproduction of labour power *and* the actual utility laying beneath the use-value of labour power, and thus results in no possible way to mechanise the way out of a labour resistance crisis (both the hill folk *and* people owed 40 acres and a mule). This meant that the strength of the Luddite successful agricultural labourer in opposing skill as a force to extract labour power resulted in under mechanisation and thus mass deprivation as the solution to the problem of extracting profit.

The south has been living on the welfare of the industrial north for hundreds of years.

Not replying to this guy, because I naturally don't talk to Marxists, but I know many impressionable kids browse this board, and they should know this is the exact opposite of the truth. The South provided most of the nation's export profits in the glory days of slavery, which the North collected via tariffs to use as corporate welfare. You'd think Socialists would be against this kind of thing, but since Socialism is really just a front for racial grievance politics, they can be very pro-business when push comes to shove.

Resource extraction, Northern skill composition.

Your workforce having no access to their own economy stagnates economic growth, that's why the North ended up being more industrious than the South in the first place. All economic growth that the Southern US experienced in the Antebellum years was entirely do to the rise of Northern Industry which drove demand for Southern exports. The only people profiting in the Southern economy were slave owners themselves, and they took over southern politics to protect their interests.

Over the last thirty years situation has remained consistent where The United States South is almost entirely governed by Republicans and economically exploited as a colonial resource by the United States North

Well tariffs weren't just a way to allow businesses to enjoy the profits of slavery, they also forced the South to buy more expensive, lower quality goods from the North, when what they really wanted was to do business with France and England instead. So it served that dual purpose of sustaining Northern industry. And if there is any one reason for the war, it's surely that: the North needed the South, but the South was being held back by the North.
>and they took over southern politics to protect their interests
The outbreak of the Civil War is far more attributable to Northern magnates taking over politics than Southern planters. Men like Jeff Davis and Sam Houston were still pro-Union at first until they realized their constituents were outrunning them. The fact is that in the South the people were outrunning their leaders in calling for secession, while in the North, with the magnates terrified of the Confederacy's low tariff rate, the people were being deceived by them. Half the nation was fairly indifferent to secession until Lincoln successfully provoked the attack on Ft. Sumter.

The real question is why do a bunch of west coast and yankee fucksticks keep flooding into the so-called “shit and economically poor” Deep South?
>>
>>18724475
Because they're poor lmao. The South is a less desirable place to live in so property is cheaper, and so it attracts poors from wealthier states to move there instead

>you can run AC in those things
not prior to the 1950s you couldn't. even Washington D.C. used to mostly shut down in midsummer because it was blazing hot out.

>>18723496
for one thing the South was totally leveled by the Civil War and didn't recover economically for many decades
