To bad they didn't push harder during the ob admin.. All this admin. has to do is review how many programs where created, along with free housing and first crack at jobs, they weren't qualified to take, ahead of others that trained for them. They've had their opportunity, if
they still want to sit on the sofa and watch reruns of "Soul-Train and Jerry Springer," instead of getting work to support the 50 kids they've had out of wedlock for the benefits, to bad, so sad. They know this administration is going to require them to look for work, and required testing for drug use in order to receive benefits!

I think the idea of raparations for Black People in the form of free college tuition is a great idea. If we can get them educated, they will be less likely to commit crimes and live in poverty. Finally, they can take their rightful place in society. Black People were the object of slavery until 1865. For another century, they endured racism, discrimination and Jim Crow Laws. Even during this time we live in now, Black People are still the object of social slavery and hidden racism. It is still there, but it is more hidden. We owe Black People. If we do this, and other things, our Black Brthern and Sisters can be free at last.

I am really tired of blacks playing the race card forever. I am native American and was offered a scholarship to KU in 1956. However, I could not live on campus, I had to stay at the Haskell institute for indians about 15 miles away. I was also not allowed on campus after 7 pm. Basically, I said to hell with you I will go to school pay for my own and stay where I want to. My people were not strong enough to hold you invaders off our land so we had to learn to live with you. I will tell the blacks do the same thing, get some backbone and get it for yourself. Then you owe no one for what you have or aquire. If you think immigration is not a problem just ask any native American. Let me ask the blacks a question. There are Watasui's and Pigmies in Africa and both are black. Why don't they mix as you want here in the USA? Can't be color as both are black, is it because they are different?? No one owes anyone for things that have happened in the past, its called life!!

A well deserved reparation would be a one way ticket to Zimbabwe, or any other communist controlled African country, after renouncing American citizenship.

Fine. Pay for a few college tuitions yourself.

I'm pretty sure our "debt" is paid in full with the level and amount of entitlements "they've" received. I'm willing to throw down for all the slaves I owned.

I think I've paid enough through all of the entitlements I've paid for.

If you feel that you owe a debt to someone, then you go ahead and pay it - if it suits you. As for 'we' owing black people, I think you should clarify who 'we' are. And don''t include me in that 'we' group. And if you're going to come back and tell me how 'privileged' I am, or how 'my' ancestors were benefited from 'their' enslavement, then I have nothing for you. Talk to my ancestors, if you can find them. 'They' have been dead and gone for a very long time, on both sides of that coin. I don't know of a single slave in the entire United States, its territories or allied entities. I have never owned a slave, do not own any slave and have no intention of owning any slave. Nor have I ever been, or ever will I be, a slave.

The idea that I should pay reparations to someone, or some class of people, for a wrong perpetrated hundreds of years ago, by some people I never knew and had no influence over is just as wrong now as it was before and ever will be.

I have with my taxpayer money. Rather see it spent on something other than a Cruise Missile launched against a bunch of camels in the desert. I thing there is a greater chance you will get a return on your investment.

There are several problems with this article: "In a vote on Tuesday, the Western Kentucky University student government passed a resolution, 19-10, that advocates the recognition of slavery as a 'debt that will never be paid' and offer free tuition to black students as compensation."

1) The debt has been repaid by President Abe Lincoln with the Homestead Act, free land to all who would take it and develop it.
2) We have free colleges and the vast majority of students do not graduate with degrees. Just look at California.
3) Today, there are more blacks in America that have migrated here from foreign countries post Civil War, than there are children of slaves. Are they all deserving of an "unpaid debt"?
4) Is lack of opportunity due to racism or is it due to lack of business start-up capital? We have still some 90 million unemployed or under-employed citizens of all ages and races, due to the great recession. The poor whites are pitted against the poor blacks to see who gets the most government perks. This is no solution.

Let's see what Trump's administration can do to fix the economy: cut business taxes, bring jobs back home, rebuild the infrastructure.

I believe you are right. It seems that blacks that have had no relatives from before the Civil War, still want the perks, just because they are black. No one or no race should receive special perks from the government and that includes state and city governments.
