JoeBob, It appears that, had the south won the war, you envision a CSA today where everyone has a great job, everyone is happy, and all is well.

Keep in mind that Texas gave us L.B. Johnson, Arkansas gave us the Clintons, Georgia gave us Carter and Tennessee gave us Gore. We dastardly Yankees, none of us having played a role in the Civil War, did not bring those politicians to prominence. You did. You are to blame for what those scum have inflicted on the rest of us.

It would appear that, given your propensity to elect the above, the status of the CSA today would be about what you see around you now. And it would have been your fault, because of the people you elect. Ironic, isn't it?
