Everything you've said is just propaganda you've been taught.
Whatever the deep South was, it had a right to leave if it wanted. It's mistake was not leaving in 1787. The Democracy thing where huge multitudes in the North could vote themselves money out of other people's pockets, was a bad situation for them to join.
Whatever. Tell me this. Without looking it up, who did South Carolina vote for President in the 1860 election. Should be easy right.
LOL. You are letting your radical brain overwhelm whatever sense of logic you might have. There were 24 million people in the North including women and children. The federal budget was around $50 million. That’s works out to $2 per person if they took every red cent. No money for the Army and Navy. No money for embassies. No money for roads and harbors. No money for Federal employees. No pay for politicians. None of it.
Do you really want to stick with that line of nonsense? I mean you are also saying the entire United States was a mistake all because you want to defend a pack of asshole slave drivers. Do you think the United States is still a mistake?
100%. Patrick Henry vehemently opposed the "general welfare clause" (Article I, Section 8) of the U.S. Constitution, arguing it was an dangerously vague, unbounded power that would lead to a consolidated government, destroying state sovereignty and individual liberty. He feared it, along with the necessary and proper clause, would allow Congress to bypass restrictions and pass oppressive laws. Henry argued that a "northern majority" would not share the same interests as the South and would use taxation to drain resources from the South.
Robert Barnwell Rhett made similar points in his address attached to and sent out along with South Carolina's declaration of causes. "The Southern States, now stand exactly in the same position towards the Northern States, that the Colonies did towards Great Britain. The Northern States, having the majority in Congress, claim the same power of omnipotence in legislation as the British parliament. “The General Welfare,” is the only limit to the legislation of either; and the majority in Congress, as in the British parliament, are the sole judges of the expediency of the legislation, this “General Welfare” requires. The British parliament undertook to tax the Colonies, to promote British interests. Our fathers, resisted this pretension. They claimed the right of self-taxation through their Colonial Legislatures. They were not represented in the British parliament, and, therefore, could not rightly be taxed by its legislation. The British Government, however, offered them a representation in parliament; but it was not sufficient to enable them to protect themselves from the majority, and they refused the offer. Between taxation without any representation, and taxation without a representation adequate to protection, there was no difference.
And so with the Southern States, towards the Northern States, in the vital matter of taxation. They are in a minority in Congress. Their representation in Congress, is useless to protect them against unjust taxation; and they are taxed by the people of the North for their benefit, exactly as the people of Great Britain taxed our ancestors in the British parliament for their benefit. For the last forty years, the taxes laid by the Congress of the United States, have been laid with a view of subserving the interests of the North. The people of the South have been taxed by duties on imports, not for revenue, but for an object inconsistent with revenue–to promote, by prohibitions, Northern interests in the productions of their mines and manufactures.
There is another evil, in the condition of the Southern towards the Northern States, which our ancestors refused to bear towards Great Britain. Our ancestors not only taxed themselves, but all the taxes collected from them, were expended amongst them. Had they submitted to the pretensions of the British Government, the taxes collected from them, would have been expended in other parts of the British Empire. They were fully aware of the effect of such a policy in impoverishing the people from whom taxes are collected, and in enriching those who receive the benefit of their expenditure. To prevent the evils of such a policy, was one of the motives which drove them on to Revolution. Yet this British policy, has been fully realized towards the Southern States, by the Northern States. The people of the Southern States are not only taxed for the benefit of the Northern States, but after the taxes are collected, three-fourths, of them are expended at the North. This cause, with others, connected with the operation of the General Government, has made the cities of the South provincial. Their growth is paralyzed; they are mere suburbs of Northern cities. The agricultural productions of the South are the basis of the foreign commerce of the United States; yet Southern cities do not carry it on. Our foreign trade, is almost annihilated. In 1740, there were five ship yards in South Carolina, to build ships to carry on our direct trade with Europe. Between 1740 and 1779, there were built in these yards, twenty-five square rigged vessels, besides a great number of sloops and schooners, to carry on our coast and West India trade."
Jefferson Davis made the same point even after secession. ""The people of the Southern States, whose almost exclusive occupation was agriculture, early perceived a tendency in the Northern States to render the common government subservient to their own purposes by imposing burdens on commerce as a protection to their manufacturing and shipping interests. Long and angry controversies grew out of these attempts, often successful, to benefit one section of the country at the expense of the other. And the danger of disruption arising from this cause was enhanced by the fact that the Northern population was increasing, by immigration and other causes, in a greater ratio than the population of the South. By degrees, as the Northern States gained preponderance in the National Congress, self-interest taught their people to yield ready assent to any plausible advocacy of their right as a majority to govern the minority without control."
