Make that pretty much all the slaves. 18 years after we kicked the
British out the congress passed a low barring any more importation of
slaves. Most were already here before 1776, brought here on British
ships.


Portugal, England, Spain, France, the Netherlands, among other European
nations, engaged in bringing slaves to the "New World." The Portuguese
were the largest slave traders.

Slaves were brought here throughout much of the 19th Century.

There are estimates that twelve to fifteen million Africans were brought
over as slaves, but many died in the transit. Their survivors lived in
slavery in this country beyond the Civil War, even though they were
emancipated. There are ways to enslave people without calling them slaves.




Union members?


Since union members typically earn a higher hourly wage and receive
better benefits than non-union members performing identical jobs, and
since union members have a contract and union officials to file and
pursue grievances on their behalf, one might fairly conclude that
non-union members are the wage slaves. Non-union workers are, for the
most part, easily disposable...just like slaves. You, of course, never
had the skills to perform a skilled union job.

That's where y'all went wrong.

That gets us back to my contention that the civil war was unnecessary.
Perhaps if slavery was ended in a way that did not cost us 600,000
lives and destroy half of the country, the transition might have been
faster and less contentious. At least you admit the war did not make
the slaves equal. The process took 150 years, just to get where we are
now.

They simply become slaves to the union and the union rules. A slug who
should have been fired a decade ago will still make a lot more money
than a young guy with superior skills and work ethic simply because
the old guy has more time in the union.
The big difference in "disposibility" is a non performing non union
employee may be fired but he can go next door and try to get hired
there. When the union prices themselves out of the labor market
everyone gets fired, the factory moves and there is no next door to go
to. You can walk around Flint Michigan to see that, just don't drink
the water.

I see you are still promoting the idea that slavery was an ok thing. If
the former slaves are not equal, it is the fault of whitey.

It's much the fault of them not taking advantage of that which is offered - education. And a lack of
fatherly influence doesn't help matters. Remember, about 80% of the black babies born in DC are born
out of wedlock.

I never said it was OK. I just said that the war was not the best way
to resolve the issue and you are simply proving the futility of that
method.

It wasn't futile; it was necessary. How many more generations of slavery
would have been acceptable to you and the rest of you white conservatives?

Y'all are an amusing old fart, Johnny.
Kalif asked me when the Brits were going to make reparations to their
former slaves defendants.
I wouldn't know the answer to that anymore than if a Brit asked when
'mericans were going to come to their senses and run Trump out on a rail.
Judging by the motley crew in here, I'd doubt it will be anytime soon.


You asked about American reparations. We asked you about British
reparations. You are closer to British than us southern people. And when
the British were,shipping slaves to the America’s Canada was 100% British.
