In at least three paragraphs please answer the following question. Although some poor southern whites resented the dominance of the “slaveocracy” most supported the institution and accepted the power of the planter class. Why did the poorer classes of white people continue to support the slave system even though they did not own slaves and thus did not benefit from the institution of slavery?

I need help writing my essay – research paper respond to the following question in at least three paragraphs. Although some poor southern whites despised the “slaveocracy’s” domination, the majority backed the system and accepted the planter class’s rule. Why did the lesser classes of white people continue to support the slave system despite the fact that they did not own slaves and hence did not gain from slavery?
