You made the false claim "economic liberty meant slavery". Freedom to enslave people is not an increase in economic liberty, it contracts the economic liberty of the enslaved persons. It was the pursuit of the economic liberty to democratically determine the disposition of one's taxes upon which the country was founded. The country was not founded to preserve slavery. It is a pitiful and offensive rhetorical trick to suggest otherwise. Where did my comment suggest that there was a disbelief in taxes on principle? That is your delusion, not mine.
