The cotton gin, invented by Eli Whitney in 1793, significantly increased the efficiency of cotton processing, making it much easier to separate cotton fibers from seeds. This surge in productivity led to a boom in cotton cultivation, particularly in the Deep South, which in turn increased the demand for enslaved labor to plant and harvest the crop. As cotton became a lucrative cash crop, the economic reliance on slavery deepened, allowing the institution to persist and expand in the United States for several more decades. This created a paradox where the technological advancement in agriculture reinforced and sustained the system of slavery.

How did the political system fail to contain slavery as a political issue following the Mexican war?
A big factor was whether slavery was to exist in the newly formed western states and in the territory acquired in the American mexican war. The south of course wanted slavery to exist there and to have pro slavery senators and representatives in those new states to assure that any legislative means to abolish slavery would be blocked. However it became apparent that much of the newly formed states would not favor slavery. The south anticipated that they eventually would be the minority in congress. Moreover with Lincoln and the republicans in power it became evident that congress may soon abolish slavery. Also slavery was essential to the south's economy and cotton became a huge industry. Wealthy land owners would not allow the north to abolish slavery. Also there was still a romantic image of war and both sides believed the war would be over after a few battles. Apparently they were wrong.

One problem that arose when Georgia did not allow slavery was a shortage of labor for the state's agricultural economy.
