DoodleDawg, you asked, “Why did the South consume 80% of all imports. What were they importing in such large amounts? In his speech to the Georgia legislature, Alexander Stephens said the north accounted for three-quarters of all business abroad. And that may have been high.”

Are you kidding? You are pretending ignorance, right?

DoodleDawg, you asked, “He also said he would deliver the mail and make appointments, though in none of them did he threaten to do it through force of arms. Not even tariff collection.”

Sorry I asked.

DoodleDawg, you asked, “He goes into great deal on tariffs, post rebellion. In neither of his two chapter on pre-rebellion tariff does he make the claim that the South footed four-fifths of the tariff bill.”

Give it up, DoodleDawg.

Legitimate question. Answer it please.

Sorry I asked.

So you don't have an answer?

Give it up, DoodleDawg.

I will when you can answer the questions.
