The standard and style of living in the North for the middle and laboring classes would have been much higher than the South.
How do you come to that conclusion? The south had a higher standard of living overall than the northern states prior to the Civil War.
Yep. The south was a lot of wealth in those days. Still is, actually. Northern loyalists are always quick to revise history though. As Churchill said, history is the victor's spoils.
