Ditto asked me to explain how the North was getting 60% of the profits from slavery. I didn't feel like trying to explain it to him because he can't seem to understand how the South was producing 75% of the tax revenue.

LOL. When you can’t answer a question, it because the person asking the question is just stupid. LOL

Tell us how the South paid 75% of the federal taxes. Show us the data.

I can answer the question, but that answer is a whole hell of a lot more complicated than the simply issue of how the South produced 72% of all Federal revenue.

Since you aren't trying to understand that, why would I want to add another even more complicated topic to the discussion?

See? This is what I mean. If you can't understand that the region which *PRODUCED* 72% of the government's revenue through their product exchange with Europe, how can you possibly understand a more complex topic?

But I think your problem is not that you can't understand, it's that you won't understand.
