Yes I do. Slave owning founders who fought for independence from England are fine, while slave owning founders who fought for independence from the corrupt money grubbing North, are not.

Please tell the class how the corrupt money grubbing North was stealing from those poor Southerners. Give some details, not just you imaginary outrages.

You are new to these discussions. I have presented this information so many times i'm just tired of doing it.

Also, I think you are so biased it won't matter what I show you, you will deny it, say it means something else, or deflect and ignore it.

To summarize, they were stealing money from the Southerners the same way they steal it from all of us today. With clever tricks, clever laws, and high taxation.

The South produced 72% of the total revenue for the Federal government, and virtually all of it was spent in the North to make the North wealthy.
