I still find it interesting that the majority of the wealthy
white plantation owners managed to say things that
could convince so many of the struggling, mostly un-
educated southern farmers, living and working in the
mostly agricultural southern states that were united
together to make an attack on the growing industrial
based power of the northern United States of America
to fight and die in order to maintain the lifestyle of the
rich and wealthy.

Sad that the issue of slavery was secondary to
the driving economic factors which could not be
resolved by legislation and somebody thought
it would be a good idea to attack a fort… and
then there was April 15, 1865 when a coward
shot a greatly heroic leader in the back of his
head, beginning a trend of being the American
method of assassination and the income tax
filing due date n the beginning of the era of
American intervention in Central and South
America back before the Chinese arrived.
