A better analogy in this particular case would be that the husband's primary motive in forcing his wife back was to retain control over her paycheck.

Except in this case all the seceeding states complained first and foremost about the loss of their beloved institution of slavery.

It's funny how you neo-confederates always try to reinvent history to forget the south's main war cry was the protection of slavery.

No they don't try to forget it. They stridently shriek in the face of ALL fact that it never even occurred to the idiots who started the war that there were even any slaves there.

Our D.S.s all say "Slaves? What slaves? That is all a Yankee myth. It was all about tariffs, state rights, making the Mint Julip the National Drink." Anything but the obvious.
