"You claimed that in 1860 the south accounted for 91.4 percent of all imports -"
No I did not. Let me type very slowly for you.
I said ....."During 1860 the imports of the South were valued at $331 million.
You are jumping to the conclusion that all "imports" were European.
It wasn't, and that is why the rest of your post is junk.
Yes you did, Pea, since I took your figures. You claimed that $331 million out of $362 million in total imports were destined for southern consumers. Reply 623. Look it up yourself.

Where did I make that connection? Regardless of the source, you claimed $331 million out of $362 million total imports were destined for southern consumers. Your claim, not mine.
