What Are States' Rights?
The Civil War<em> is believed by most to be caused because of the issue of slavery. Some, however, believe that it was actually about states' rights, or the rights of states to govern themselves outside of the control of the federal government. Whenever states' rights arguments are made, they all eventually come back to slavery. States' rights were simply a convenient political debate to fit the slavery argument into.

<em>The American Civil War was, ultimately, about one thing: slavery. However, other issues found their way into the debate as well. Arguably the most significant of these was the issue of states' rights. The idea of states' rights, at its most basic level, is the idea that the states that make up the United States of America should have individual rights to work as their own independent governments beyond the control of the national government. For example, while most states in the U.S. have a minimum driving age of sixteen years, it is actually up to each individual state to decide. In South Dakota, for instance, the driving age is actually fourteen. This is generally believed to be due to the large farming population that requires the help of young teens on family farms, often requiring that these teens drive trucks or tractors to tend to crops and livestock, but there is no legislative evidence for this belief. In New Jersey, the minimum driving age is seventeen, the highest in the country. There have been efforts in the past decades to impose a national law for the driving similar to the national drinking age in 1985, but these efforts have not been successful as of 2017.</em>
To preserve a balance between and states, Congress enacted the Missouri Compromise, which allowed slavery to expand the state of Main alongside the state of Missouri but not in the rest of the Louisiana Territory.
The Missouri Compromise was a piece of federal legislation in the United States that struck a balance between northern states' aspirations to stop the spread of slavery in the nation and southern states' desires to do so.
Between July 4, 1805, and June 4, 1812, when it was renamed the Missouri Territory, the Territory of Louisiana or Louisiana Territory was an organised, incorporated territory of the United States. By a vote of 24 to 20, the Senate first approved an amendment that forbade slavery in the Louisiana Territory north of the 36° 30' latitude line, with the exception of Missouri.

In the United States, political campaigns are mostly financed privately. This means that people are allowed to make donations to politicians. However, there are laws that regulate these donations.
