“The Civil War ended slavery, killed states rights and created a nations of tax serfs ruled by DC.”

I agree with this statement. It ended the horrors of old world slavery and replaced it with a lighter form of slavery.

no it didn’t; the 3% tax imposed on incomes over 800 per annum was repealed in 1871...the 16th Amendment, passed in 1909, and ratified in 1913, did create a nation of tax serfs...
