[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm all for paying higher taxes to provide healthcare for all, better schools, and free college for lower-income kids. I worked in development for 10 years and huge cash transfers aren't the way to go. Teach a man to fish and all that.[/quote] I see your point. What if the [b]accumulated wealth of people who benefited from slavery[/b] was put back into the school system, into healthcare, and other systems for supporting disadvantaged communities?[/quote] Why is always about getting paid back for slavery (or Jim Crow, redlining, bad policing etc.)? Why not just fund every school at the right level and give everyone good healthcare? Who cares if it equals the accumulated wealth from slavery or not?[/quote]
