This is like paying for someone else's debt. First off........who gets paid? During the 1800's we used Chinese as slaves to build our railroads. Do we pay every Chinese person too? The Irish basically was slave labor in the iron industry........mining. Do we pay them? And just because one is black does not mean they had slave ancestors. How many of color immigrated here long after slavery was over? The fair way to do this is line up all CURRENT slaves and CURRENT slave owners...and then make the CURRENT slave owners pay their CURRENT slaves damages. Otherwise this is like paying a bill for what someone else bought a100 years ago.

@DIABLISS I can't imagine paying anyone anything. I can however imagine how a lot of people are behind this to get a free payday for themselves for nothing..
