[H.Akston]

We, as a nation, are better off today (although not perfect) since the south lost.

We would have been better off if the South had never seceded. Then the States would retain the ability to discriminate based on personal responsibility, like they always were able to do before the 14th Amendment by the Yankee Rump Congress overrode the 10th Amendment, unconstitutionally.

A voluntary Union is a more perfect Union.

A house divided can not stand. That's why Lincoln shouldn't have fought the attempt to build two houses side by side, that were united within. This new Union is divided, within.

[Sam's Army]

"This new Union is divided, within."

That's an unfortunate result of people deciding to hyphenate their heritage and hold on to grudges that were settled generations ago.

"We would have been better off if the South had never seceded. Then the States would retain the ability to discriminate based on personal responsibility..."

And skin color.
