Some news for you. Unless you can quit your day job or whatever you do during business hours and leave the US forever at a moment's notice financially, you're a slave.
There's only two classes in this country: Ownership and everyone else. You may be a highly paid well kept slave but you're a slave nonetheless.
But that's not what you are alluding to. You're either not an ADOS or you've lost your way if you are. If you're ADOS then your family is certainly Southern. You're just talking out of your ass as. If the North is so great why are so many moving to the South and West?
