Would you deny then that the North, seperate from the South, would not be a fully european socialist state by now, at a minimum? At worst communist country. You are not going to tell me the North would be MORE free market 140 yrs after the fact? Even you are not that full of BS.....

Hmm. You know our First socialist President, Woodrow Wilson wouldn’t have gotten reelected without the South. Food for thought.

What's your bet?

Is N-S male or female? Or Both?

No, my BS level doesn't approach the level of the Lost Cause brigade. But what the hell, I'll play his game too. Without the harm caused by Southern presidents like Wilson and LBJ and Carter and Clinton and Bush I think that FDRs excesses would have been reigned in by Congress and the Supreme Court - because we, at least, would have one. FDR would have been an anomaly and yes, I believe the U.S. would be a far more capitalist country than it is right now. Most likely far more free market oriented than the third world cesspool the confederacy would have become.
