MODERN SLAVES

I have received some posts that suggest that I should post a new blog. I have taken a slight hiatus from blogging simply due to time. However, I have found some half-thoughts on my computer that I will begin posting. Here is one of those now.

MODERN SLAVES

I have a theory that the Second War for Independence in 1860, otherwise known as the War Between the States, was fought for different reasons than what the government school I went to told me. They went through a lot of pomp and show to explain how much Lincoln loved the black man and how the South hated him. So, the montra went something like this; “The war was fought to free the slaves”. However, I think the war was fought for far different reasons and contrary to the war being fought to free the slaves I think it was to make all men of the states slaves.

I come to this conclusion by looking at the life of the typical slave. They had five things taken care of for them; healthcare from cradle to grave, food, clothing, shelter, and consistent employment (job security). Fast forward to the present and isn’t it funny that we modern slaves are clamoring for the same things. We want Massa’ Gov’ment to provide for us healthcare, food, housing and job security. I guess that is only 4 out of 5. Sorry, my fault, I guess we aren’t modern-day slaves afterall.
