We are and always have been two distinct and separate peoples shoe horned into a federal union. The more controlling that union gets, the more trouble there will be.


Exactly. The Yankee/Puritan colonists came here to create their "new Eden", complete with all their rules and edicts for how life should be lived. The Southerners, by and large, came here to get away from that schit back in Europe and to be left the Hell alone.
