Wants to pretend that the South did not "win the peace" - you post the facts that prove they did. How different the world might be had people who had farming skills had been given 40 acres and a mule as a good start. Most weren't eligible for The Homestead Act . . . It would have been a good start on the road to the American dream. And today - the economic disparity continues. Thank you for posting this!
