23. I am sure Tourism of the Battlefields must be
a boost for Virginia's economy. This to me is like the celebration of the Lousiana purchase campaign. There is nothing wrong with holding true to our history, and the Civil War was a big part of that history. On the Other hand, you should not be holding up the Confederacy like a prize. To Celebrate the secession of Virginia from the Union falls into the later category. :thumbsdown:
