Slavery was intertwined in the economic reasoning for the war; ending slavery was not a moral imperative for the north. They intended to damage the Southern Economy through its abolition. Nothing more.

cgo, at this point I consider you one of my best friends and in my mind that’s reciprocated so let’s cut to the chase here.

The Democrats interpret The South through the history the north wrote about the Civil War. That is, Democrats have completely bought into the idea that the war was about slavery and The South was the bad guy. This history was built for pre-schoolers and falls apart as soon as you look into it. But they still believe…

I think you’re confusing yourself.

This is an absurd viewpoint and the reason that nobody watches anything on Fox News except Tucker Carlson these days. Medicare for All may massively shift capital from the middle class to Big Pharma and their shareholders but it won’t directly lead to a rise in mass shootings.

Everybody makes mistakes.

Please don’t call us “Trumpanzees,” PersnicketyPants (Enemy of Trolls). It’s not very nice. 

Honestly, TehMoose, this is really inappropriate. Please apologize. 

Considering how much money we’ve given Israel and how many of their local enemies we’ve upended for them, they really have no right to ban any of our politicians for any reason, ever.

Move away from the West Coast?

The stock market rewards those able to partake in it, that is - those who have excess capital. That skews toward the rich, but when you get to the actual rich, the elite level, the skew goes parabolic. In a word, yes. Take a look at the wealth gap... that’s a result of asset inflation. Has this benefited or harmed the…

What am I cherry picking?

This is the best and most original theory yet. Still wrong, but good.

I wasn’t sure what his accusation was, so I ignored it.

Obama had a starting point two months from a low that hadn’t been seen since 1996... so first, that. Second, most of the market’s increase is due to the Fed and in spite of Obama’s policy. Anyone trading those markets knows that and even most economists will admit it.

Here’s a conspiracy theory for you... China obviously does not want Trump reelected. They’re willing to endure bear markets and have already in this trade war. They know that Trump is afraid of our markets tanking before his reelection. China, and others that will not benefit from a second term for Trump, will do…
