As the industrial revolution was taking place in western European countries and in the United States, it may have not been foreseen, but the economics of slavery simply was not going to be a viable system. In the United States, speaking about the early 19th century, the cost and maintenance, of a captured work force would have soon enough fade away. When this might have happened in the US Southern States and in Union states that had legal slavery, is speculation.
