Read it again I’m talking about Northern slave trade. The salve trade (the importation of slaves to the us was a Northern business witch was why slaves were still used 3 years after the war in northern states, and the war was brought about because the north wanted to destroy the southern plantation system before it could become even more powerful that it was. the south rebelled against the north for this reason. slavery was secondary and just an issue the north could exploit.
By the way I’m a northerner I was born in the us my father is English and my mother is French Canadian. I have lots of friends who are of many different ethnic and racial backgrounds. The only problem I have is the inaccuracy and misinformation being spread by all of the various groups, black groups white groups etc... ALL TWISTING THINGS TO THEIR FAVOR! I hate lies and plain stupidity. Some may call me a raciest when I think we should do away with welfare or more to the point put it back to what it was when the program was first thought of. (a voucher system for food or goods no cash or food stamps that could be sold or traded for what ever. (You got a voucher for food you went to a government approved store and got a pre selected list of food) not walk into a supermarket and pick up t bone stakes you and peanut butter and jelly for the kids, iv'e seen this makes me sick) you got a voucher for rent and your landlord was reimbursed directly.
I despise any person or persons who have no physical or mental problem other than they don’t want to find a job because sitting at home is easier. My father is an electrical engineer he used to work for eb designing nuclear subs. they had a massive layoff. One of his fellow engineers was not called back before unemployment ran out him and his family went on welfare when he was finally called back he didn't go he was making more money in cash and benefits staying on welfare than designing nuclear subs for the government!) Now this is a system that is in a real need of an overhaul.
