The last American Civil War was about taxation and (lack of) representation. You are seeing it again. Yep!

This time it's not about cotton, pine and indigenous savages. The boundaries are not nearly as clearly defined. Every Yankee is not dependent on government and every Southerner is not independent of Government as was the case last time. It's a little different when D.C. robs a Rebel business and it wrecks a Yankees 401k.
The only thing worse than a liberal is a liberal that thinks they're a conservative.

Michigan, Illinois, and Kansas should have been invaded and burned by the South. But Be Well, RZ.

You don’t have to read a book to hate Yankees. I’ll take three Mexicans for every Yankee we get to throw in the ocean. Dealing in absolutes is absolute idiocy...

Oh...IF you mean "yankee" to mean a state of mind or ideology, then I can see your point, but your meaning is a "blanket statement" of everyone above the Mason-Dixon, then it's an incredibly misguided statement...

False narrative. Men went to fight because men were going to fight. Same as all wars. Peer pressure, socially constructive guilt, with a pinch of "adventure".

Dam good chance that if it had split, it wouldn't have looked good after a few decades. One of our strengths is diversity.
That was fun!
Seriously. We had manufacturing, ag, mining. Steel was coming on, infrastructure to put it all together. And it all worked as one machine, without too much BS competing among jurisdictions.
Couple that with the Europeans circling like buzzards to grab a foothold and move back in.
Heck, they were supplying both sides in our war and looking to slip into the fray at the first easy chance.
This is all mental masturbation, some think of today's political makeup and feel the south would be better off. Possibly.
Or, the migrations north for work, then South by manufacturing, wouldn't have happened. The Depression and run up to WWII are what modernized the rural South. What would that look like if the country was split?
Would the south would be like some "used to be great" ag centered countries that are now 3rd world s-holes. Probably not. It's not like there was no industry in Dixie. But who knows.
Some like to play regional rivalry BS. It's all history to me. An incident 150 years over is interesting. But long over.
Right now, we are in a fight of at least as much importance. Some here talk stupid crap of relinquishing territory to our enemies.
Never!
Not important. We had slaves. Bleck Power. Anyway, as it was, the war has maybe destroyed us anyway and has resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of US servicemen. How? By leading to war debt Grant paid off by selling the US out to the Crown and Vatican in the acts of 1870 and 1871 which put foreign Zionists in positiins of power in the Military/Industrial Complex and banking system. It let Lincoln put in a different economic system.designed to fail.
