It's all just Yankee elitist bullshit. "Oh yeah look at how more productive we were with cheap irish immigrant labor and factories right next door to agriculture! Nevermind the fact that the common man in these industrial towns was dying at age 35 of lead poisoning and black lung!"
It's easy for elitist Yankees to claim that southerners lived some type of bad lifestyle when they'd never experienced the poverty of the common man in these northern cities that they pretend were such productive happy utopias.
Sounds like they were living and enjoying their lives. Notice how now everyone is brainwashed in schools to go out and become a career employee, and your worth is based on how much product you can produce for them.
Notice how he never mentions what happens to all the milk those cows produce. Here's a hint,it got sold to people who make butter and cheese but don't own cattle.
