If the folks in the south would have picked their own damn cotton this country would be a lot better off than it is today..
I can’t disagree with that after everything is said and done but when this country started everyone, black or white, that came here as slaves were indentured that could eventually work off their servitude. It was a black man, Anthony Johnson, that fought, went to court and won the case to make another black man, John Casor, his slave for life. So how often during Black History Month is it told that the father of legalized slavery in America was a black man?
If I’d known then what I know now, I would’ve.
If the folks in the south weren't exploited by taxes we would be a lot better off than we are today.
90% of the federal revenue came from the south. Is that fair?
The rules are the rules even if they're not fair. /s
