The American Civil War wasn't fought because of slavery
[quote]But, Khan, why'd the south secede?[/quote]
Because of taxes and tariffs which couldn't be overwritten.
[quote]Then why'd the south have slavery and the North didn't?[/quote]
When the war started, both sides had slavery, which is why slavery wasn't abolished earlier.
[quote]But-[/quote]
No.
I think this easily proves that slavery wasn't a major factor in the Civil War.

Our position is thoroughly identified with the institution of slavery - the greatest material interest in the world. Its labor constitutes by far the largest and most important portions of commerce on the earth...."[/i] When the poorly educated victims of school budget tax cuts, common knuckle dragging bigots and or neo confederate internet trolls say "the American Civil War was about the economy and not slavery" they're telling a truth in one breath and a sad lie in the other. The slaves -human families- [u][b]were the economy[/b][/u], and the perpetrators of this american atrocity had no issue whatsoever with making their position clear at the time. #history[i][/i]

However, after the emancipation proclaimation it became a fight against or for slavery, depending on the way you view. Abe knew hot to rally the troops and get more support for the war.

Editado por Flynn: 5/8/2016 6:51:08 PMSlavery was abolished to help the North win (meaning the war itself wasn't about slavery). Slaves could gain their freedom by fighting for the North.

Bullshit. You can fool any other uneducated person, but not I. Slavery was a huge reason for the civil war- just not the only one. Slave owners lost their shit when any talk of abolition was brought up.

Also the only reason the north 'had slaves' was because of missouri because it was above the mason-dixon line but the missouri compromise allowed it.
