I like Alan Keyes. He is terrific. This concept of his will never fly....but it sounds good.

...descendants of slaves should be exempted from income taxes to help heal the wounds of past discrimination and segregation. How is this a good idea? Give blacks tax breaks (i.e. money) based on their descendants past suffering so they'll like white people more? The answer to all race relation problems have been found!

I agree that this is an excellent idea, as pointed out in this thread, many of these individuals don't pay income tax anyway. If the government offers a decade of no income tax it could also offer incentive to businesses to hire these people since they won't be required to pay matching funds....

Aren't there many who are already exempt from paying income taxes due to the current system?
