"In US we had our share of civil conflicts driven by economic forces. The European immigrants brought slaves from Africa to use them as cheap labor for farming their lands. The color of the skin is only a rationalization for the continuation of the slavery system.

Though the American civil war was attributed to states and civil rights, the driving forces behind the war was the conflict of economic interests." »Med Jones
