At some point in our history, the common standard was that the country should be divided along racial lines, equal but separate. Then someone decided to change that standard, and convinced others that this was the way to go. That wasn't so long ago.

That was no kind of "standard," kosta. It was a rebellion against the universal standard. For purely pecuniary reasons.

Oh yeah, it was all money, like slavery, right? Well then what changed? Was profitable any more>?

How about homosexuality? Up to the mid 1960's for example in England it was "against the law" to be gay. In our country they were officially diagnosed as sexual deviants, people who had a peculiar mental illness. Today the society treats it as the "other" normal [sic]. Was that pecuniary as well?
