Here is some food for thought in these troubling times. All of this is fact, and is public record.

The Civil War almost happened in 1832. Prior to the Revenue Act of 1861, there was no federal income tax in the US. Prior to that, 90% of federal revenue was derived from import tariffs. These tariffs varied by goods but averaged 15 to 20%. In turn, the European countries that were importing US goods charged a similar tariff rate.

Nation to nation this may seem like an equitable arrangement, but domestically it was very unbalanced. The bulk of industrial goods, produced in the north, were being consumed within the US. On the other hand, 80% of the agricultural goods produced in the south were being exported. In short, the tariff was forcing the south to charge higher prices for the goods that it sold, while at the same time forcing them to pay more for the industrial goods that they had to purchase.

In the early to mid 1800’s, the south only comprised about 30% of the US population, but it was paying about 80% of the revenue that the federal government was collecting.

Things came to a head in 1832, the fed had enacted two new tariffs and had effectively raised the tariff rate to almost 50%. South Carolina responded with a state convention and articles of nullification. This nearly led to secession and armed conflict. This is know as the “Nullification Crisis”. Fortunately, a compromise was reached in 1833 and the tariff rate was reduced to an average of 20%.

In the late 1850’s, the US was experiencing a recession. The recession had the most effect on the industrial north. Using the recession as an excuse, in May of 1860, the federal government passed the Morrill Tariff. This effectively raised the tariff rate to 50%. This was a highly partisan act. Only one southern congressman, out of 50, voted in favor of the tariff.

South Carolina responded in December by seceding from the union. They were quickly followed, in January of 1861, by five more southern states. By June of 1861, the eleven primary southern states had all seceded from the union.

This was major concern to the northern controlled union government. They new how much they relied upon the south for federal revenue. Conversely, the general populace in the north had an attitude of “let them go”. They didn’t see the significance of the departure of the southern states and also most people recognized that the union was designed for mutual benefit and also recognized that each state had a right to secede.

This is horrible, these facts imply that there were other reasons in addition to slavery for the Civil War.
That is a theory that makes you a racist.

I would have empathy I guess the word is now and I could say the tariffs were key. But I don't.

The cotton was getting a very fair price given that there was say...lots of cotton, which forced the south to seek export markets. Still, the south could out produce US demand and why ?

Because and particularly in view of the hard costs to industrialized north, plus labor costs affected price. So it was with almost no effort on the part of the south to produce, Seeds, water, sun and slaves. 'Cotton was King.'

So the even average let alone large cotton farmers had to do almost nothing at all to bring in great profits, almost all they took in, was profits. Little to no production costs. All he needed was land plus the others.

So it was as is typical today...g r e e d. Those poor southern cotton and agric. slave owners didn't 'work' for a living, they watched, enjoyed and got rich. So it was greed that was the incentive for slaves, the incentive against tariffs and the incentive to secede.

Why am I not surprised ?

Bullshit !! Most slave owners did nothing of the short and had foreman or overseers to handle their slaves. They certainly didn't work dawn until dusk and later during a full moon. As long as there was light...slaves could be out in the fields. Slave owners had a far superior diet, medical care and life expectancy of about twice that of the average slave.

Slave owners and their families enjoyed the best of everything life had to offer...slaves had none.

The thing you have to remember, Greta, is that a lot of the Confederate troops would have been motivated more by regional pride and resentment at these Northern politicians telling them how to run their own 'States than the slavery issue.
