The Union should have scorched earth the South when it had the chance. Tear up their train tracks, block the harbors, nationalize all the farm lands, dissolve the rebel states borders into Federal Territories, hang all rebel political leaders and put all military officers above Lt. in front of the firing squad. Instead, you let them live and fester, even naming military bases, ships and tanks after them.
If we had done to the south after the civil war what the world did to Germany after world war 2, I firmly believe we would be in a much better place.
Fucking Andrew Johnson.
Fucking Andrew Johnson.
This needs to be said every time it comes up.
I consider him to be the second worst US president
The slave owner families are still in charge.
I don’t know why you got downvoted because it’s fact that a lot of wealthy southern families are generational plantation wealth that just pivoted into the corporate world after slavery was abolished.
Americans really don't like pointing out that we have oligarchs too.
Yeah, Americans aren’t even taught in primary and secondary school that the American Revolution was started by the 1% who wanted more representation for their interests in parliament, not the interests of the poor. The founding fathers were largely wealthy plantation owners, traders, and other types of elites who were losing even more money than before because of the unfavourable tariffs levied on the colonies after the seven years war. Thousands died so the rich could stay rich.
exactly! The revolutionary war started with a trade dispute.
It’s not fitting for the American propaganda machine to depict rich people as bad.
