Lincoln did care about the slaves, but not as much as he cared about preserving the union. This is why the North went to war, and it's what they "solved" by winning it. The country became one country instead of many after the Civil War. (05-10-2022, 09:13 PM)mikesez Wrote:Yes the south could and should have won the war.

The country became one country instead of many after the Civil War. Slavery got added on and helped to give the north a reason to fight. Hardly anyone in the south owned slaves and only the elites had enough money. Look at the elites "freeing" people and then helping by making it worse after they freed the people. At least when they owned you they had to keep their slave investments alive. Afterwards they were free to pay you next to nothing and if you died, they just replace you for free. Elites always claim to help you while handcuffing you to whatever life they want. Sent from my SM-S901U using Tapatalk We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

You know there's no reward for being wrong about everything, right? You could try to be right about something, it wouldn't hurt you.

Nope. He was a tyrant.
