I’m kind of into the idea of quantitatively easing directly to African-American households, *but*
“the reality is that financial leveling is one of the aspects of racial inequality that it would easiest to fix” http://www.vox.com/2014/5/23/5741294/slavery-reparations-are-workable-and-affordable …

I think it’s interesting that Yglesias conflates “reparations” with closing the white/black wealth gap.
-
EVEN THOUGH at the end he says that the gap would reemerge because of disparities in education (and don’t forget network effects!)
-
And he also notes that the amount to close the wealth gap is a tiny fraction of “what was stolen.”
-
… I can’t be the only person who sees the logical conclusion he misses.
