I used to believe that "expansion" bullsh*t, but then I started looking at the facts. It wasn't going to expand.

Well when it comes to bullsh*t who better than you would know?

Yes, I know, you think slavery would have somehow been made to work in the territories, even though i've shown you they couldn't do anything with their primary cash crops in the territories

You have presented your opinions on that, yes.

But the 75% of all the taxes being paid by them would remain exactly as it was

The South was not paying 75% of all the taxes, your opinion to the contrary notwithstanding.

BroJoeK says "Democrat propagandists" when he can't address the point. Apparently your tactic is to portray things you don't agree with as a subjective "opinion."

12 slaves in all of New Mexico territory pretty much establishes that slavery wasn't going to amount to much in that area of land. You can call this "opinion" if you wish, but that is just your "opinion."
