Two points:

-Missouri actually abolished slavery during the Civil War and before it ended.

-Kansas non-farm employment took a huge hit when the private airplane manufacturer Cessna, which was based in Wichita, basically shut down after laying off over 6,000 workers.

I have no idea how much non-farm employment Koch Industries provides, but they sure pour money into Wichita State Basketball. Other than that and Kansas City, Kansas ( KC, Mo’s little Bro) there is nothing but wheat & corn fields as far as the car can drive. I guess Tractor Supply probably hires people tho.

Pro-slave people or Assholes. Love it. So is the Latin on Missouri's flag not their motto? I also like the angry bears and that was my exact thought before I saw your note under the flag. Have a great weekend, Chris.
