Pat Caddell: Country's Mood Is "Pre-Revolutionary"

No it did not, it was a compromise. It meant that for purposes of taxation and representation every 3 out of 5 slaves were counted. It was a compromise because the Southern states wanted all the benefit of counting slaves for the purpose of increased representation, but did not want them counted for purposes of taxation...

We never had a taxation law that used the 3/5 rule, so they basically got what they wanted anyway.

It actually would've been better for slaves if they hadn't been counted. Because as it was they were basically being counted and their votes given to others in the form of increased representation.
