although you can argue that capitalism began earlier most people would agree it began with in the middle ages so slavery pre-dates it by thousands of years

with regard to your slavery remarks - what about the abolitionist movement and all the pressure exerted on govenments to abolish slavery - the catholic church itself was one of the biggest influences on the abolition of slavery - Lincoln made speeches against the 'evil slavery' all through his life

i think you are being harsh on the people involved with getting rid of it to suggest they were just motivated economically - also when are you suggesting that slaves were made up of the 'working classes'?
