| I agree with dave654 completely. I have not done anything to directly hinder the economic growth of minorities in America, yet I am expected to hand out money to pay "reparations" for something that I have nothing to do with? The wrongs have been done by our ancestors; I will not pay a penny in reparations to ANYBODY. What about the Irish and the Polish (to name just two)? What about the hardships they endured? I realize that they were not held as slaves, but they were treated just as poorly as Black Americans were in the past. I simply do not agree with reparations. IMO, it seems like a method in which some people are trying to get some free money. |
