So now all of those mississippi slaves can go free out into the shrinking economy and not find jobs ?
Whats your point ?
As a LIbertarian, you don't believe in the Federal Government anyway, so why do you care?
This has nothing to do with the federal government. This is a Tenth Amendment issue.
Geez....

But Isn't the 10th amendment from the same constitution as the 13th?
No.
How could the Tenth Amendment and Thirteenth Amendment possibly be the same?

In some people's interpretation of the Constitution, EVERY Amendment is secondary to the 10th. What they fail to recognize is that when the Constitution is amended, it changes, and what may have been previously not a Federal power is now given to the Feds.
I presume that he meant that a under the 10th Amendment, slavery was not regulated by the Federal government. BUT, the 13th changed that. So it's not a 10th Amendment issue anymore, because the 13th gave that power to the Federal government.
But you'll never convince a self-described "libertarian" that their interpretation of the Constitution is wrong.
No.

I presume the point is that Mississippi is culturally backwards.
After watching the film, which depicts the political fight to pass the 13th Amendment, Batra did some research. He learned that the amendment was ratified after three-fourths of the states backed it in December 1865. Four remaining states all eventually ratified the amendment -- except for Mississippi. Mississippi voted to ratify the amendment in 1995 but failed to make it official by notifying the U.S. Archivist.
After 148 years, Mississippi finally ratifies 13th Amendment, which banned slavery - CBS News

Waiting until 1995 was funny enough but 2013 made my day. Way too funny.
He didn't say they were the same thing. Did you even read the post?
They are both part of the same federal constitution, one amendment just happened to be added latter.

I guess Mississippi isn't the only thing that is backwards on this thread! Or maybe Nick cannot read.

No, everything after the Tenth Amendment violates the Bill of Rights... None of it is legal.
State rights are supreme - if those liberties weren't, then the Tenth Amendment wouldn't exist.
