No. We didn't.

In real life, the civil war was caused by a complex confluence events that included an incompatible stance on immigration policy due to vastly differing regional economies, greatly differing interpretations of moralistic codes between differing cults within the Christian tradition, and the simple political ambitions of political parties in relation to whether newly adopted states would be "slave states" in order to gain or retain more clout in the forging congress.

To date, I don't believe that there is any evidence that the civil war was started because a single governor visited a foreign country on one occasion.

...which is precisely why no actual historian or really any educated individual tends to think so.
 Quoting: You_people_are_nuts


Wrong.

The civil war was started by the bank of Chicago and the railroad tycoons that wanted the Souths land to build their iron machine.

Before Lincoln became president he was a lawyer...for the railroads.

You should check into it. The rich wanted the poors land...and it didn't matter what color it belonged to, they were shot in the back, their farms/homes were burned, or accepted the few dollars that the railroad offered.

The point was...the railroad won because it had a president on its side...and the power of wealth.

There was nothing complex about it...except how to spin it as something it was not: a war to free slaves.

No...you're still demonstrabably wrong, and having my bachelors in history I can assure you I've looked into it.

In real life and according to actual events the North and the railroad companies alike considered the Souths scant 9,000 mikes of track and inferior, obsolete wood-fired infrastructure to be of little strategic relevance given that it only connected to regions whose chief exports were all low value agricultural commodities and there was little interest in people choosing it as a destination to re-settle when the land grab westward was reaching fever pitch.

In fact, southern rail lines were considered so useless that many were actually dismantled so that the ties, spikes, and rails could be repurposed and something useful done with them in a transcontinental sense where there was some sort of actual money to be made moving things of value to places that mattered.

In real life, that is.

Re: Commiefornia Gov. Brown Defies Trump on World Stage ; Signs Deal with China
Let's say, just for shits and giggles, California sees China breaking their laughable agreement, which they undoubtedly will. What are California's options? They're not a state with representation in the UN, so they have no recourse to the International Court of Justice, where such disputes are settled. Brown has no authority to close China's consulates in California or expel diplomats. The California National Guard is certainly not going to take on the People's Liberation Army.

How much did this little photo op cost the good taxpayers of the State of California, I wonder. How many trannies' reassignment surgeries could just the fuel for his jet pay for? How many delta smelts could have been saved?
 Quoting: Revbo™


Exactly, this was simply a cover for Brown's free vacation to China and commiefornian's bought it hook, line and sinker.

The Associated Press reports, however, that the agreement does not bind either China or California to specific greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets.

It's non-binding because he doesn't have the authority to sign "deals".

So, in typical GLP style, we can say unequivocally, nothing will happen. At least, not on the China side.

Just a photo op and a shot at Trump with the governor of California playing at foreign policy.

China laughs at your ass, Brown. They have zero intention of ever honoring any climate agreement. I'm sure you'll bring this worthless piece of paper back and use it as an excuse to make the people of California's lives a little more difficult, though.

Brown’s China visit was not the first time that he has attempted to lead on the world stage. In late 2015, he traveled to Paris — in the immediate aftermath of the San Bernardino terror attack — to participate in the global discussions around the climate change accords that eventually emerged — and which President Trump subsequently rejected.

Re: Commiefornia Gov. Brown Defies Trump on World Stage ; Signs Deal with China
During the Civil War, Robert L. Owen Sr., who had been one of the engineers surveying for the railroad and who had risen through the ranks, succeeded McDaniel as President. The railroad served as a key supply, food and troop movement route for the Confederate States Army, particularly from the capital of Richmond to the interior at Chattanooga, Tennessee. The V&T moved also key raw materials: copper from mines near Cleveland, Tennessee, lead from mines near Bristol, salt from Saltville, Virginia and saltpeter from caves throughout the region. Union forces finally captured much of the railroad and destroyed tracks and rolling stock in late 1864, although service was periodically interrupted by a series of cavalry raids earlier in the war.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 63309817


Correct. Case in point. Even during the war there was little to interest in preserving the infrastructure for future use as armies do with things of strategic importance (think oil wells in Iraq).

...and after much (not ALL...but a lot) was salvaged for use to the west.

Very much the reason no professional historian I'm aware of considers the civil war to be about rail lines.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74556774


*sigh*
I swear my work here is never done.

#1. In real life the Constitution only prohibits states from enacting treaties with foreign powers. Although in fairness, it is customary that things like arms deals and large scale trade agreements also need a 2/3 majority at the Fed level, too.

#2. This neither, treaty, arms deal, nor trade agreement.

#3. States have always had the right to set their own environmental, laws, policies, rules, ordinances, etc so long as it was not LESS stringent than the federal stipulations which would supersede it in any court of law with a discussion about 30 seconds long.

#4. If you read more than just the headline...the very same article you are so outraged about takes great care to note that this wasn't binding in any way or can even be considered an agreement.

#5. By rule of law, even a county, municipality, private corporation, or single individual could have done the same with Chinese government without issue.

#6. Take away the irrational fear of the name "Jerry Brown" and you're left with a governor who had a conversation that resulted in at MOST a memorandum of understanding that his state and the Chinese counterpart should try and cooperate on environmental stuff but requiring or obligating neither party to do so.

#7. Even if it did...it still wouldn't supersede Federal agreements in place that might be more stringent.

So...what are you all bent out of shape about? That two guys from different countries sat in a room and said they should try and help one another if possible?

You're misinformed on so many levels, it's astonishing.

-It's not possible to get a get a history degree by "regutlrgitating" knowledge. Your statement makes it painfully obvious that you imagine university level coursework is the same as high school level, thus further substantiating my point that this is plainly not your wheelhouse. Aside from the couple of watered down gen-ed history classes just about everybody has to take, you get an "F" on anything you do that "reflgurgitates" someone else's' analysis. You have to conduct your own research and rely heavily on primary documents.

-I'm assuming nothing. Simply reading through the posts will indicate that one of the posters is not like the others. That being said, I cannot say by any stretch that I'm "the most educated" here. There could very well be someone with a PhD in mathematics who happens to misunderstand the past greatly, as it is not their expertise. However, in terms of history at least, I feel like I'm on really, really solid ground here.

-check out my post a little earlier if you'd like something more on-topic where I correctly pointed out that the very article that has so many people screaming "civil war!!" cites that the end result was non-binding. This makes it an "agreement" with a lower case "a"...like agreeing upon where to go to dinner tonight. Not an "Agreement" like one would have in a contractual sense.

Hence, there was nothing at all in least bit controversial that occurred...much less unconstitutional as some on here are asserting.

All this fuss over two guys from different countries who think it'd be cool if they could help one another out so there's less toxic shit in their backyards.

Civil war!! The Constitution!! Commies!!
lol

When I was a kid I remember my dad coming home making a cocktail turning on news and telling Jerry Brown off calling him fukin fuk idiot......then switching the news to star trek.


and now I do the same. Fuking fuk idiot!
A word of caution to neophyte Martini drinkers: When taken to excess, this perfectly civilized drink can lead directly to uncivilized behavior.
