  1. There was more than just slaves coming out of Africa. There was gold, cocoa, and sugar too. The slave traders didn't discriminate, because those guys would buy stolen goods too (this was the "golden age of piracy")

  2. I wouldn't be so certain of all of the accepted facts of the bubble. Namely, most the politicians involved were only involved in they bought the stock like everyone else, and most of the rest were schemes that wouldn't become illegal until centuries later, and we have few records or eyewitness about who was buying/selling what when and more importantly who knew what and when.
