Which is sort of like saying that if I chop off your arms and legs, it can’t really be considered an assault because I left your liver intact.

How did the poor USA, if SO crippled during the war years, without arms and legs, manage to accomplish the following? Completion of the transcontinental railroad and the westward expansion which went on unabated during that time.

My point is without the south life still went on in the USA, no problem. Actually the economy boomed.
