Why did Most Southern whites not own slaves but still supported the slave system?
Most Southern whites, even if they didn't own slaves themselves, supported the slave system because they believed it reinforced their social status and economic well-being.

Why is share cropping a form of slavery?
The people working on the property, do not own the land. They do all the work, and the owners get most of the money.

Therefore these people work against their own free will and are slaves.
What was the attitude of southern whites towards slavery?
While it is never a good idea to generalize, studies have shown that large majorities of southern whites accepted slavery. Some even felt it was the right thing, because they believed that black people (then called "negroes") were inferior and meant to be slaves. But other southern whites were somewhat more ambivalent about it; we know this because even though they kept slaves, they later arranged to set them free. It is also true that the way slaves were treated varied: some owners were harsh and brutal, while others were somewhat more humane. Still, there was little public discussion about whether keeping slaves was ethical, and most southern whites seemed to support slavery as a necessity for running a plantation. Based on newspaper and magazine articles of that time, we can conclude that a large majority of southern whites were in favor of slavery, or if they had their doubts, they were not vocal about them. But it should be noted that there were a few southerners who were opposed to slavery and who did their part to try to end it. Unfortunately, their views were not the dominant ones, so slavery persisted.
