I'm all for social changes, I believe there is a huge problem in the economic structure in this country and with the world.

However, I will fight for feasible, fiscally responsible social programs for ALL in poverty and lower classes but that doesn't mean I'm going to argue for reparations. They are 2 totally different arguments and say otherwise is just foolish.

That said: flat out Will, Do YOU believe that we should give reparations to blacks? A simple yes or no.
