I totally agree that any living slaves should be compensated with Confederate money.
confederate currency is far from worthless (and the only living slaves that are legalized by their nations are in Africa...funny eh?)
on rebel money...... Today, the value of these notes is far from worthless. Their prices range from under one hundred dollars for the most common and heavily printed series, to the tens of thousands for the rarest. Most of the heavily printed issues are still readily available to some extent, while the rarer issues are tightly held by collectors, and don't surface that often. One thing is certain though, quality Confederate notes have shown to steadily increase in value over the years, and make a good investment.
