Slavery/or States Rights?
Is there truly a difference in what the Civil War was being fought over when asking the question posed in the header? If one would argue that the Civil War was fought over states' rights the question can be: States' rights to do what? Name me any other "States Rights" issue that has led to a war? Have "States Rights" issues disappeared since then? What about when the federal government mandated wearing seat belts or raising the drinking age or raising the tobacco consumption age etc...? Have we had any more real threats of civil war?
Is this a real question of states' rights? Or did some people just want to continue to keep people enslaved?
