Well if you're going to make numbers up why not ask if it was worth 10,000,000 Northerners or 100,000,000 Northerners?

If you guys had gotten what you wanted there would not be a United States today. We would be the Balkans with cowboys.

Obviously, otherwise they would need a passport and visa come retirement age. And I guarantee we’d be real good on border control. ;)

I’m glad that the South remained in the Union. It would be a poor country without our great southern states, and people. Having said that, I believe that the southern states had every right to secede. It was a terrible time, and the loss of so many of our boys, both north and south was tragic.
I’m a westerner, and have much more in common with southerners than yankees.
