I suspect the native Americans would disagree, and perhaps would have preferred Morton's alternative to the Puritans. Of course, when one looks at the exploitation by the British of indigenous people in other parts of the world, it would likely be equally grim.

It does make me wonder what the world would have looked like today, had Morton and his allies won out against the puritans. He was still old world money after all, and could have anchored commerce in Britain's interest. Very likely the "New World" would be under British rule, or perhaps would have rebelled at a later point in time.

Fuck the Puritans.
