Is that correct? Because, if so, your beliefs are at odds with the wishes of the Founding Fathers of America, countless historians, and countless political scientists, economists, and social scientists. Honestly, it must be nice to have your head in the clouds. As for Post 68, once again, my citation was merely to point out that the WBTS was the nation's deadliest conflict, and that in any ensuing strife that's predicted to come (including by the US government), the death count from the WBTS will pale in comparison. As for the government of the CSA and the WBTS, the conflict was merely a continuation of the Federalist vs. anti-Federalist debate which was, by extension, merely a continuation of the English civil war under Cromwell, the monarchy, and their respective followers. Now, I know that history is a delicate and difficult concept for you to master, but if you will, please keep up. Regardless, my primary point was in relation to the Articles of Confederation, the transition to the Constitution, and their applicable role/example with the massive failure known as the European Union.
