Flame » in reply to Two words: Jim Crow

I wonder.

Destruction of the constitutional relationship between the Federal government and the states, even for a higher purpose, may sometimes have more long-term consequences than the original problem.

I'm not sure how long Jim Crow would have lasted even without Federal intervention. Such thinking in the modern world would put a state at an enormous disadvantage economically, if nothing else.

Imagine an auto company deciding to build a plant in a state like that, or any modern business.
