Ever heard of Volkswagon?
In a similar legal manoeuvre, survivors of the Holocaust secured $4bn in reparations from firms that used Nazi-era slave labour.
Those companies included Deutsche Bank, conglomerate Siemens and carmakers Volkswagen and DaimlerChrysler.
You go and think about it a while before rebuting me, I know MY history abit too WELL for you to tell me what you'd think you know against WHAT I do know...
Somebody needs to read the WHOLE article and it ain't me.

Slightly off topic, but regarding reparations by German companies, as reported in the National Post last month. (sorry no link)
5 billion dollars has been set forth for 6 million Jewish holocaust victim's families as well as for surviver's themselves.
150 million has been allocated for approximately 2 million non-Jewish holocaust victim's families as well as surviver's. Of that 150 million, approximately two thirds has been allocated to Jews in Russia leaving 50 million for non-Jews,mainly non-Jewish Poles.
Do I think that Blacks should receive reparation monies? Why not. If a second generation Jewish kid and his family has his or her life improved because of reparations, why not a descendant of the slave trade.
