Its fked because the union seemed to unite, but brought with it taxes, while the south didn't want the nasty taxes and stuff, yet generally thought slavery was OK despite roughly 75% of them not actually owning slaves.
Ultimately, if I remember right, about half the confederates simply gave up. They must have seen how much of a fk up the whole thing was just the same way we do now.
I have a very old PC game called north vs south, that's not where I learnt about that war though. Its a turn based strategy game, very fun.
And im not American, Iv also had too much coffee so I'll just stop that right there lol.
Most slave owners had just one or two slaves and were relatively poor and many farmers in the south were quite poor anyways, the conflict had a hell of a lot to do with states rights, the southern states thought that the states had more power than the federal government and the north believed in Federal Supremacy.
The north's better agricultural, industrial, political, and logistical resources beat the south who actually pulled off a decent number of victories for the first part of the war until the north went full out.

Us the people through taxes and a portion is spent on it each year.
There are also freelance people who either have the money to invest in it or simply do fund raisers.
Some people are bad and some people are good in every facet of our being. The main arseholes of the world are heavily into religion, politics, medicine and energy.
I'm guessing you knew that anyway. Renewable energy is the thorn in their sides as it directly affects their profit greatly hut I know that BP and other energy companies have patented elketric car designs, clearly evolving their business practise with the times.

I guess it would be considered Christian centric but there are at least 5 different religions of Christianity, and at least half the school kids there are in gangs and almost all the middle aged and old people go to church. Makes sense. Christianity along with Islam are the latest iterations of a very old story, check it out. What does make me laugh though is how in the new testament, jesus's followers claim he is the son of god and yet he rebukes them by saying that he is the son of man, yet people call him the son of god. Global warming is real, but it is a cycle and we simply are speeding it up. Its a lot more complex than just gases creating a greenhouse effect and I really cannot be bothered to be typing up a 20 page spread. The 'its not real fence' is there to keep fossil fuels as an ok source of energy. There is far less money to be had in renewable energy because a lot of it would be a one off payment with maybe maintenance fees now and then. Companies look at long term gains and renewable energy shows a gradual profit loss as it doesn't incur constant fees. An example is our houses running off solar power, one off payments rather than a continuous money vaccum. Anyway I'm not in the mood for debate but good luck. I have to ask though, how does believing in a figure but not what he preaches while believing in an event created by the religion he is part of work?, And at the same time, not believing in a proven and observed environmental change on a global scale. If you can't be bothered to answer that then fair play. If its made difficult to answer because its a feeling that you can't put into words, then you should think about that deeply and ask yourself, based on what exactly?. If it is just a feeling then you should look into delusional logic and take into account any major head injuries you may have had. I'm not trolling you either, save any butthurt please but you seem reasonable despite your logic. i believe in the figure and what he preaches, but i should make you realize, preaching what to practice and actually practicing it are 2 different things, the church does this, they have abandon the original ways and become an empty shell of its former self. global warming hasn't been proven at all. bringing up a picture of a chart and saying (this is this and that is that) is not proof. i should say that, i follow the teachings of jesus, not the teachings of the church, which if you would look carefully at, you would see they hardly follow his original teachings. You mean, what they practise. Aye and that's where you are ignorant, there's more than just simply holding up a chart. Pun intended, you are preaching to the choir as I have extensive knowledge of religion going back way before Christianity. I am fully aware of how corrupt they are and I understand that you follow the teachings of Jesus but how can you follow that from a book that has been changed much. The meanings in the bible are also not written with account to the way meanings and languages change over time, so how can you follow any of it?, is it just a feeling that you have?.
the core philosophies, how to treat people first, how to live.. what to expect in life and all that. i know that many people believe their religion is right, but hardly anyone gets a vision from their god in person.

I lived through 19 years of domestic and child abuse and only escaped at the beginning of the year. I don't care for help from anybody, I don't want to live a normal life like everyone else, there would be no point in it for me.

However find other people to be your home-abuse confrontation therapy surrogates. Not interested in the job. Nor do I particularly care how you choose to move forward. But you are what...
Using this thread to practice standing up to people?

I think you are delusional.
What's worse is that it was a dream, not a hallucination.

Please note the part about being peer-reviewed. If your findings can't stand up to scrutiny (i.e. you found the results that the funder was desiring) then you aren't going to be taken seriously.

Void, you are grad A fked up and I don't blame you after what you have been through.
If it was a hallucination, then a chemical imbalance or possible brain damage could be identified.
The fact its a dream makes you delusional.
Also its not a case of crhoosing anything, its a case of you clearly denying reality and from the looks of it, choosing dreams instead.
I'm not trying to convince you of anything. You are just completely lost and willfully ignorant.

I don't agree with the word normal actually but being delusional in fact makes you lost and you have displayed that you are ignorant and have opinions on things you know nothing about.
I think it has a lot your do with your age and life experience (or lack of). You clearly keep insinuating that I am a stereotypical ignorant person which is a bit rich coming from yourself sunshine.
Do you even know what dreams are?. Its your brain crunching down info and experience coupled with the effects of a drug that is released from your pineal gland.
You are following a dream based off your lack of knowledge.

Stupidity is knowing something, having SEEN the evidence for yourself and THEN denied it's existence.
Believe it or not, most people haven't seen the actual evidence provided for peer review on global warming.
So to most people it's an abstraction.
For example: I have not see the evidence but -60 degree record winter temperatures give me ammo to say GLOBAL WARMING MY ASS!
Regardless if it's true or not.

And ignorance is having all the resources to find out yourself but not bothering or drawing conclusions from what feels good/suits yourself. That or simply denying something because you don't like it.
But agreed yeah, I was wasting my time lol.

I really don't care what people say about my experience, to me if your the one who will immediately say "it was just a dream" or "its was just your brain doing something" your just one of those atheists who will nock down anyone and everyone who expresses personal experiences simply because theyv never happened to you personally.
I'm not the type to try to convince you do go for something because it happened to me, but I am the type to defend myself over issues that I know personally from experience happened, regardless of your own views or beliefs.
