Reparations

Many Blacks feel as though they are treated as second class citizens and many say it all started with slavery and continues today. Their income is less, their unemployment is higher, their rate of children out of wed lock is three times higher, their school dropout rate is higher, their test scores are lower, the number in prison is higher, the number in college is lower, their wages are lower, their home ownership is lower, their crime rate is higher and on and on. Now candidate Williamson has proposed that each Black American be given $10,000 in reparations for slavery. How will this money affect the real or perceived mistreatment.
