If One Goes.. So Does The Other

This week in American Studies we've covered quite a bit, but more specifically, we covered that if one anti-slavery state were to join the congress, a pro-slavery state would also join the congress. Now, when I heard about this, I thought that it was a pretty dumb way to never come to a conclusion; the conclusion being whether or not America was a pro-slavery or anti-slavery nation. But, I thought it was also marvelous because I never knew so many people could not come to a conclusion on this obviously terrible thing. But hey, what's so god-awful about free labor? After learning this, I realized how much of a unorganized nation we once were (and still are, but for different reasons); I mean, they (the congress at that time) lacked the ability to be coherent, and make just decisions to everyone who inhabited the nation. You have this nation, which was ruled by foreign men who knew nothing of this place, then kicked out the people who actually did know quite a bit about this place, and the nation rulers listened to nobody but similar foreign men (AKA white men); because they only listened to their self, they hadn't a women, a black, or a native to guide them. It was only these European men who they listened to. Because of this (the foreign men doings), they've planned a future of chaos for their self, but triumphs for others. You see, you had a women Revolution, Civil War, and many many more things that happened just because of a lack of listening from the foreign men. But anywho, history shmistory, our world is wonderful now isn't it?
