Is it really true that once you quit UPS you can't go back?

[QUOTE="satellitedriver, post: 5106388, member: 1664"] Now we are talking. I replied to your ignorant post about under paid slave slaves being lashed. Your words, "Basically, an underpaid slave is one that gets more lashes and less food than the rest of the slaves." That is the stereotypical misconception of American slavery and iconic imagery. Did it happen, yes, but it was not the norm. Only 1% of the population in the southern states "owned" slaves. Many whites were indentured and that is another topic. [B]Fun fact.[/B] Abe signed the emancipation proclamation to keep the British from supporting/militarily the southern cause. Ergo, the rebellious states. Britain wanted the cotton and agricultural products from the south, but were held back by the proclamation. Britain had abolished slavery and Abe hamstringed them on their own petard. Read the first three paragraphs of Abrahams inaugural speech made in 1860 and glean his views on slavery and the union. Old Abe is also quoted saying, "I would never have freed a single slave if it would keep the union intact." Indentured servitude is repugnant and is still prevalent today in America. The underground sex slave trade of woman and children in America is sickening. A large part of FBI work is devoted to the topic. I am far too familiar with world wide slavery. My bailiwick is open to rational debate. [/QUOTE]
