Lincoln's main concern in his Second Inaugural Address was peace.
Lincoln sees the War as the divine retribution for the United State's sin of slavery. He states that both sides wanted to avoid war but one, the South, for its economical reasons, the ownership of slaves, wanted to tear the nation asunder, and the other went to war because they could not let the nation perish, the North. Lincoln wants that people forget their grudges and to together heal the wounded nation. To forget retribution and "with malice toward none, with charity for all" rebuild the torn nation.
Answer:
C. 25%
Explanation:
Before entering the civil war, confederates states tried to spread a propaganda that only 1% of Southerners own slaves. But, According to the census that conducted by the US government 1860, around 25% of southerners own slaves.
Not a lot of them were being put in plantation as workers (usually only wealthy business owners can afford this). Most of slave owners at that time own slaves as an equivalent of a housemaid. They helped with the chores, taking care of stables, cook, etc.
As the veterans came back, they returned to the workforce in large numbers to fight for jobs with existing workers who had entered the workforce during the war, unemployment shot up due to the limitation of jobs. The government wasn't worried about this, it was more worried about possible inflation.
