Description

The American Civil War was not merely a conflict between the North and the South, but a World War against the British Empire. The issue was, and still is, whether the world should be dominated by the British system of free trade, slavery, poverty and destruction, or by the American system of protectionism, development of the population, industries and rising standards of living. From the LPAC feature movie "1932": http://larouchepac.com/1932 Original vid: http://youtu.be/pPYjc-GhUq0 America was founded as a protectionist nation http://dailycaller.com/2010/09/13/america-was-founded-as-a-protectionist-nation/ Protectionism, Free Trade, and the Civil War http://www.yankeerino.com/protectionismcivilwar.bhs "But in the late 20th century, America abandoned "protectionism" what Henry Clay had called The American System." http://buchanan.org/blog/the-pope-and-godless-capitalism-5550 Free Trade, The Confederacy, and the Political Economy of Slavery by Frederic W.
