We have been paying reparations since the mid 1960s and Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society. Really, enough is enough.
Add the cost of the Civil War, the disruption to the economies of the North and South, reconstruction and on and on. We’ve more than paid the debt.
Welfare of $30/year for the last 40 years exceeds their decided fair amount already. Unless of course we start charging those jailed $100,000 per year for costs.
