I remember in high school in the south I had a history teacher try and convince us that the civil war was waged over taxes only and in reality didn't have anything to do with slaves.

The best way I've seen it explained:
In middle school, you learn the civil war was all about slavery
In high school, you learn it was actually about more minute, complex things like taxes and state rights
In college, you learn, well, yeah but it was still like 90% because of slavery
