How did Eli Whitney make the production of short-staple cotton profitable?

Eli Whitney made the production of short-staple cotton profitable by inventing the cotton gin in 1793. This machine significantly sped up the process of separating cotton fibers from their seeds, allowing for much higher productivity compared to manual methods. As a result, it made short-staple cotton, which was previously labor-intensive and less profitable, a lucrative cash crop, greatly contributing to the expansion of the cotton industry in the Southern United States. The cotton gin effectively transformed agriculture and the economy, leading to increased demand for slave labor to cultivate more cotton fields.
