Slavery was a solution to the problem of shorthanded workers on plantations and such. A plantation is a large farm or home, usually in a tropical or subtropical country, where crops are grown for sale in distant markets, rather than for local markets.

Southerners became dependent on slavery for cheap labor. They would able to make profits by having slaves instead of hiring workers .

The benefit of having slaves for a business is that they would work whenever you tell them and you don't have to pay them.
