when i read this item in the record this morning i nearly spit up my coffee when the dumbass said it's not coming out of your own bank account but from tax dollars.
My contention is this, my family on both my mother's and father's side, only came to this country during the mid-20th century. They didn't own black slaves in either country of origin (ireland & germany) so why the hell should I have to pay reparations through my tax dollars???
And to people who were never themselves, slaves.
