I'm not interested in whatever point you think I'm missing unless you clarify it sufficiently. You'll note I only mentioned the compromise, which you don't have a good replacement for.
The revolution was won well before the compromise, btw.
It's limit on slave state power was a good thing. Why do you say it was evil?
Are you kidding? wtf is the 3/4 compromise? Did you learn about the (far superior) 3/5 compromise back in school? It minimized political power the slave states would have had if slaves had been counted at full population.
Except they aren't dying off, just like the Trump supporters didn't die off in droves after the rallies last summer. It turns out wishful thinking toward an overstated problem doesn't do much.
I remember when I was stuck in a Guanajuato dive and stumbled across another programmer, our only common language being Perl. Sure was handy being able to ask him "donde es el baño" using those regexes and interpolation.
