In #GoneWithTheWind as war begins, brave & confident planters contend that southern valor will prevail, but #RhettButler responds that while southern plantations grew #cotton to feed the #English mills—all the factories ended up in the North.
Through the '90s we sent our industry West to #China saying—doesn't matter; the banks are still in New York! China now looks to reap that which was sown.
Americans obsess over our 19th century history, while managing to learn nothing from it.
