<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mrbrklyn, post: 231912, member: 4381&quot;]First, its not true that salvery dies out naturally anywhere.&nbsp; Historically slavery only dies with the death of the nation state or society that perpetrated it (ie: Rome)</p><p><br /></p><p>And who&#039;s to say that even today we don&#039;t leverage Slavery all around the world under the guise of &quot;Free Trade&quot; especially in China, Africa and Asia.</p><p><br /></p><p>At the time of the Civil War, Slavery in the south was on the rise because of the harsh conditions within the Missisippi Delta which required cheap manual labor on a massive scale and the Souths poor climate in general, the high bounty for the cotton commodity, and the ruin of soils in the South East which caused the Calonia&#039;s in particular to view the **trade** in slaves as being essential to its economic health.&nbsp; Slavery in the American South was at its height at the dawn of the civil war and the south was willing to use any violence necessary to infuse it into the West and to protect it.&nbsp; Read about the Werstern Free Labor movement.&nbsp; There is a reason why most of the Republican &quot;radicals&quot; came from Western States during Reconstruction.&nbsp; That reason is because they were victemized prior to the war by bloodshed in trying to enforce Southern Slavery into the Western frontier.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Ruben[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
