The Civil War was not only about the issue of slavery. The South realized that it was a dying way of life. They were currently trying to abolish it themselves. It may have been slower than what the North had wanted, but they were trying. The North had pushed for immediate action, but the South felt threatened, especially since enormous amounts of tax was enforced upon products coming from slave-owning plantations. The South not only was attacked that way, they had less of a say in the government. There were far more states that didn’t have slaves than there were that owned slaves. They were out-numbered. And thusly, a cornered rat will eventually show fight. They threatened secession, which did occur not because of slavery itself but because of the lack of say in the government, so your post is incorrect. Research first, next time. The Civil War is over. Get over it!
“lack of say in the government”
Which is what our current situation is about. We have more Takers than Makers and the Makers are tired of paying for everyone else. We have Taxation Without Representation.
