Appreciate the thoughtful reply.
I can’t imagine endorsing war as the right solution, for (nearly) any circumstance.
I’ve long wondered about slavery’s abolition in other nations. Why did it take a war to achieve that here - were Americans really that “stuck”?
Your point is well-taken: perhaps it wouldn’t have taken a war to get (with time) better results, if the classical liberal view had prevailed.
