I would like a reasonable explanation on why someone whose great great grandfather may or may not have been a slave should be paid money from someone whose great great grandfather may or may not have ever owned slaves. How do we make a determination about who is worthy? How do you prove their grandparents didn't move here after slavery was long abolished? How do we decide who needs money and who doesn't? IE: Will my adopted black aunt with her 6 figure income be included? This sounds suspiciously like income redistribution. And if blacks should receive payment because they were left in poverty, what do we do about all the white Americans who never had a break, who were raised in poverty? If they'd been left in Africa, would they be better off today? So again, how could anyone even make these determinations? They can't.
