@HawkofNewYork do you feel the American blacks have had proper restitution? I think the US gov should have done more long time ago and should still. But, as time does on, and with all the distractions in the world around us. This seems extremely hard. @ScottAdamsSays

It's my own opinion
@HawkofNewYork that it's hard to find love and peace when one is living in a perpetual state of victimhood. Can't move forward and forgive if you keep looking back. The past is over. We moved on as a country. Be proud of that. -
The past is the past. The future is not yet written. There are so many ppl turned off by reparations that are willing to help with forward-thinking ideas and improving race relations. But this "first you need to admit ur a racist" thing is not very helpful. Sigh.

I was never a slave owner and I reject racism in all its forms. I refuse to atone for things done by other people who are not me and are long since dead.

thanks for the reply all, that makes a lot of sense. It should be considered with care, but its still the same government just different people/time. US should identify black folks who are of slave ancestry as best as possible. I think it would not cost as much as it may seem.

The idea of paying for at least two years college tuition for all non-whites regardless of lineage to slavery (we wouldn't want a racist solution) for 25 years seems like a smart one.

We may think we had nothing to do with it when we never owned slaves, but we inherited massive advantages as a result of the position our ancestors were in. The descendents of slaves had none of these advantages - because of slavery and subsequent racist policies.

And blacks are doing so much better in other countries in the world, which is why so many of them are fleeing from the US to those other countries. People vote with their feet.
