yes, the war was not over slavery, it was over secession. the union was a
federation at the start and many states thought they had as much right to
leave as to join.
now i'll test your history knowledge. what state first threatened to secede
from the union? you'll all be surprised.

Let's face it, we've had taxation without representation ever since the
imposition of the Federal Income Tax. You can blame that on (at that time)
the Republicans and the aftermath of "The War of Northern Aggression".

the summer. I feel you are fundamentally right, if I was working, I'd
wonder why my taxes had to go to the war machine, etc.. t's always a toss
up.
