... Pointing to students' debt loads, presidents of predominantly black colleges asked Congress for more money for financial aid ...I like subsidized student loans better than I like the notion of reparations.
Take the present value of the net transfer of wealth, including free public education, housing, medical care, and job protection, into America's black populace over the past 4 years, and I assure you it is some large multiple of any reparations demand.
And no, if you subsidize them more now, it won't be backed out of the reparations demand later.
