    I've got some Jew in me from my Jew-loving great-great grandmother in the mid 1800s.

    Got twice as much German, though. So I guess I owe a big debt.

    I think they have a case given the Japanese thing. But why weren't Italians and Germans given reparations? I'm 1/4 German and want my reputations pronto

    Only living Japanese who had actually been interned in the camps received compensation. The Federal government put the Japanese in camps. The Federal government didn't enslave any black people. There's really no comparison.
    If only there was block chain technology in 1865, this whole problem about reparations could be solved. Either you and yours owned slaves or you didn't. Easily verifiable through the technology. You play, you pay.

    But alas, that didn't exist then. So somebody is going to have to tell me why a nation comprised of a few generations of mongrel immigrants and descendants of abolitionists in the north fighting to end the practice should be held financially responsible for something they adamantly opposed at the time.

    Because dat shit just don't make any sense.

    Alternatively, give every fucking person in the country $10K and STFU.
