Absurd. I never owned any slaves, and they have never been slaves. Those who chose to destroy their neighborhoods are responsible, not taxpayers who have not even been on their streets. This isn’t a racist attitude, it’s common sense. Especially if I worked for my income, I shouldn’t be penalized for anyone who worked at a lesser fee but what they agreed to work for doing the job they sought out, not forced on them to work. This is slave mentality on their part thinking they should have a share of the wealth of others, just because they are black. I doubt any white individual growing up in those neighborhoods, or working at the lower paying jobs would see an income redistribution of someone else’s money so they could be “equal”. This is RACIAL INJUSTICE, an Obama agenda and unfair to those who have prospered by their decisions legitimately and taken care of their assets. Stealing from those who have to give to those who earn less and because of their skin color is WRONG.
