In 1787 slaves were regarded as 3/5 Today all those that sold their vote in Georgia are feeling like 3.5/5. ($1400/2000) C'mon man that's progress!

Today, in America, we are all slaves without Representation. Our vote was taken away.

I love how people view the 3/5ths compromise as racist against the SOUTH. When it was the South who wanted slaves to count 100% but the north was AFRAID of the slave votes in the South taking their power so the north requested 1/2 or less per vote.
And most people are too retarded to know it

I'm not sure of your point.
The south was hypocritical. Oh Africans brought over weren't human beings for anything. But when counting people for representation, the south suddenly wanted them to count as people.

What he is saying is that the 3/5 argument is used in supporting of our racist origins.
But in fact, the racists wanted 5/5 counted under the constitution.

Represented by the slaveholder who was allowed to vote.
