For an excellent, rigorous, thorough and illuminating examination of our beginnings at Jamestown and their relevance to many of today's attitudes and policies, see MartyrMade's series on The Peculiar Institution. Paywalled but worth paying for. In my view, of course.
Through my mother’s lineage my family is part of the Ancient Planters. They arrived prior to 1616 and paid their own way to the new world.
My mother’s family has a strong farming background persisting into recent times.

But the Jamestown settlers were greedy. And they all died. So they didn’t NOT start this nation.
