Instead of muh farms
At the beginning of the war, the north had 22 million people. The south had 9 million people.
Why doesnt everybody have the same power?
We dont bend over for iowa man
Thems the breaks
The problem is the same problem the rust belt is having and what flyover country has been having for years. If no one gives a shit about you, then things become worse off for you. If people only care about the big cities, then the rural areas become neglected and rot away.
That's including slaves
Then dont live in the Rust Belt
Move out
Yeah, meaning that they would still be a marginalized region.
They still are honestly
It wasn't about not giving a shit. It was about slavery. That's exactly what the Confederate leadership said, in every state, and in their constitution
“Just move out.”
Easier said than done.
No
Mexicans do it all the time
Retard
Just remember, only about 20-25% of people moved out of the Midwest during the dust bowl.
And starting a war because you feel marginaliz is ridiculous
No, it isn’t.
Why arent we liked?
>start war
You cannot be a piss poor region and expect the rich ones to give money to you freely.
By that argument, the American Revolution is ridiculous because the colonies felt marginalized by the British Crown.
The vast majority of federal revenue was from tariffs. The south paid like 8% of the bill. I'm willing to bet more than 8% of federal budget was spent on them.
Colonies had 0 say
South just wasnt happy with theirs
And the south often had about as much say.
Uh let's see. Boston Massacre. Prohibition of public assembly. Quartering Act.
They wanted all say
It was a lot more than just taxes bro
3rd amendment is the real mvp my dudes
Yeah everyone forgets about that one
And the south seceded over much more than just slavery, you cretin.
Guys, the same way that now coal minning and truck driving arent jobs of the future, slavery and agriculture were not back then
3A is the reason Ehzek and I didn't live in your house and make your wife cook for us, wash our clothes and shit
But mostly slavery
Then rape your wife and daughters
@Deleted User, it doesn’t help when no one gives a single shit to try to change that.
They werent though
Well I wouldn't go that far. Most British and German soldiers were not barbarians.
They had what 6 candidates to start
