No Reparations for Slavery

Liberals say we need to “pay reparations” to blacks to atone for slavery. That’s a LUDICROUS suggestion. Nobody who held slaves is still alive, and people who are now alive aren’t, in any way, responsible for slavery. All that is, is yet another scheme to suck more money out of us by “tugging at our heart-strings.” I know I wasn’t responsible for slavery, and I don’t know ANY of my ancestors who were slave-holders, either. In fact, I’m pretty sure some of them fought to FREE the slaves. Slavery, in fact, is still going on all over the world, and I think this is the first country to make slavery illegal. Our government pays many people handsomely to come up with more, and better ways to suck more money out of us. This is an old idea that has been tried, unsuccessfully, before, and for good reason. Like taxing cow farts, it should be ignored. (CNN, of course)
