[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]None of this is going to change until this country pays reparations. These ugly condo builds are not going to make housing affordable. [/quote] Reparations for slavery ? It ended 160 years ago. If you can find an ex-slave still alive, I ‘ll send him/her a check myself. More seriously, the country already payed reparations in Civil War dead. On the Southern side most grunts were poor whites who owned no slaves. On the northern side, most were small farmers with no direct stake in the outcome. Yet some gave all. Without the Union victory and the blood shed by Union troops, there would have been no Emancipation Proclamation. If you don’t call that reparations, then you dishonor their sacrifice. [/quote]
