Reparations for slavery

[ian]

Yes, obviously with provisions.
It only makes sense that people that were screwed out of money get it.  If my great grandparents had money that didn't get passed down to me, I would expect it.
However, I think it should be in the form of scholarships or something useful, not just a random check given to all great-grandchildren of slaves.

Then go give some money to some black people in an inner city by you right now.

OK, I clearly was one of the people who responded in the polls to the incorrect question.  However, MJ, my great-grandparents were all immigrants, and, therefore, didn't have slaves, so it isn't my responsibility to pay the reparations, although I won't be complaining if the government takes my money to help out the process--just because I think it's the right thing to do.  Also, I have given many-a-hobo, many of them black, some money to buy food and MREs in downtown Little Rock.
