I can support reparations but not in the form of cash. It should be as free education up through the college and university level, free job training, job creation and placement programs, single-payer healthcare, maybe zero interest home loans. Everyone in the country should get these benefits, and it will help to raise up blacks, Indians and the poor the most.
@pianoplayingsteve The tax payers of course. I would pay taxes for those programs willingly. All those programs would make the country more prosperous and safer.
And If we outlaw off-shore tax havens for corporations, end wars of conquest and plunder (Afghanistan), end bail-outs and subsides for Wall Street and corporations we will have plenty of money for programs of domestic improvement.
