Enjoyed the article.
Like all Capitalist, Jefferson's statement about slavery being like having a wolf by the ear clearly showed his own interest and those of his own cast was is chief concern. Not humanity and certainly not caring about his slaves.
I will give him credit where it is do with regard to certain beliefs in a general sense, but the bottom line is he was a slaver and one of the fathers of modern day slave owner mindset predatory Capitalism. Fuck slave owners and Capitalist.
“we have the wolf by the ear, and we can neither hold him, nor safely let him go." Thomas Jefferson.
