Chapter 12: Master of the United States

Who are they? Before the Civil War, none of them were ordinary people, but the top of the entire United States. The entire southern states are under their control, which is better than the factory owners in Abolition State. Because the economy of plantation itself is a winner-take-all model, most people simply cannot afford black people.
It can be said that apart from a group of financiers in New York, their wealth was unmatched in the United States at that time, and those financiers were actually far less massive than their plantation owners in terms of group size.
It can be said that the economy at that time was not much different from the north in terms of per capita, because the white population in the south was much smaller than that in the north, but at the top of the pyramid, their plantation owners were far more than the north. Factory owner.
"Where can't you be a human being? If you want to be a human being, it's better to do it from the United States than to do it in Brazil. Now that the conflict in Brazil has just ended, it will inevitably go through a period of chaos. The general environment is very detrimental to your development. And the United States is different. Brazil cannot be compared with the United States. If we are in the United States, at least it is very convenient to do things in the entire America. Other American countries do not have such convenience. "
I do n’t know when Sheffield also took out a map and spread it out in front of everyone.
With the current information, apart from the United States, there is no large coal mine in the entire America. It is well known that coal affects the national strength of a country. It ’s huge. There is no development in Latin America alone. There is no way to put it simply. "
This is not a problem of this era. It can be said that until later generations, a huge coal mine has not been found throughout Latin America, which can support a country as a driving force for industrial operation.
There are diamonds, gold, and silver mines. What's the use? Isn't this a suitable object for being robbed?
"In those days we only had money, and we did not have the ability to protect this money. This ability is the advantage of manpower and factories, so we were looted, so after many years, you were looted again in Brazil. At the national level, those lacking in Latin America Countries with important energy sources will be looted sooner or later. "Sheffield pointed to these countries in the southern United States with a high tone of voice.
"That's right!" The man who was facing Sheffield hit the table with a heavy punch, and then drank his glass of wine from his neck, his eyes full of reluctance.
Sheffield likens the countries of Latin America to the Southern Alliance Army, which had faced the overwhelming manpower of the Federal Army. This connection made them all feel the same. Maybe many people in the Civil War have not experienced it, but it does not matter. Not everyone in Brazil saw it this time.
Whether it was the tariff conflict in the Civil War or the Brazilian incident, they were all the people who were sacrificed. The previous tariffs were not a problem, and the subsequent abolition of Brazilian slaves was not a problem. Because the policy can be changed, and the temporary policy is unfavorable, they can wait for the next election, but once the labor force is released, this loss is permanent.
What is the country ’s direction? There is only one problem for the damaged plantation owners. You want to abolish slaves, who will accompany your losses? No one cares about this problem, then this deep hatred is even settled.
Extending to the national level, Latin American countries in the face of the United States, just like the plantation economy in the face of industrial society, is certainly a shortcut to accumulate wealth. The ability to resist risks is too poor, and the fruits may be harvested at any time.
For everyone who has suffered two losses in a row, this metaphor makes them feel the real situation now. Sheffield ’s reaction to these people was cold, and he added weight, "In fact, all the problems we are facing now come from the defeat of the last Civil War, which caused you to leave Brazil and suffer again in Brazil. To the same predicament, if we ca n’t stand in the United States in the entire Western Hemisphere, we ca n’t stand in any land. You can find a smaller country to continue planting, I think Haiti is good, but Haiti is smaller and easier Affected by foreign forces, if you want to be taken away by Yang Jiluo for the third time, you can continue to avoid it. "
"Instead of continuing to be an ostrich, it is better to face the difficulties. This country is originally ours, not the upstarts. Think about this issue carefully. The status of Yankee today should have belonged to us. Without us There is no United States today. "Sheffield broke his finger and presented the evidence word by word.
The president of the plantation owner is not a question of who is, but who is not. Despite this question about the president, the expansion of the United States is also mainly driven by plantation owners.
"Yes, those upstarts are just a group of robbers. What are the qualifications to be praised by public opinion? We should go back to our own position." Everyone spoke, and took Sheffield's words deeply.
Sheffield is naturally not bullshit, because the plantation economy is the earliest driving force behind the westward movement of the United States. The Democratic Party insists on taking the route of the agricultural empire, and it has to continue to expand westward in the territory, while the south can also provide space for the development of the plantation economy. This approach is of course also very popular for self-cultivating farmers, because the farmers most need is cheap land.
The development of industry in the north requires the concentration of resources rather than expansion. As a result, the new territory is dominated by agriculture and animal husbandry. In the north, a new political area has been formed, which is the west. As a newly entered state in the west, the system is more democratic and has an impact on the northern political tradition. Therefore, the active westward movement in the south contrasts with the hesitation in the north. The vigorous expansion of the south will naturally demand more seats in Congress, and the plantation will naturally have more land.
The apparent destiny of the United States' vigorous expansion was proposed by the Democratic Party. The US-Mexico war also broke out during the term of the Democratic Party President Polk, and the Democratic Party itself relied on the support of a large number of plantation owners.
"Today ’s American territory is a result of our vigorous efforts. War traffickers and slave owners are all of us. Yang Jiluo enjoys the convenience brought without saying anything. He also cursed us and ransacked our property. Is there anything more betrayal than this? The dogs will not bite us back. Who are we? "Sheffield stood up and watched everyone, stood up and circled behind everyone, holding his head up Shouted, "We are the masters of the United States."
"Yes, we are the masters of the United States, this country is ours." This remark aroused a lot of emotion.
"Yan Kielo loves liberation? This time we won't distinguish between white and black people, we will give them a real liberation!" Sheffield knocked on the table, "The planter's thing passed, and later! White black people are not One question, everyone is the same in front of us, we talk and listen. "
