And, Dougie, in case you have forgotten my earlier observation. All wealth is created by *labor*. God did not plunk down i cent worth of *wealth* when He created this little experiement. Not one cent's worth of wealth. Just raw resources and labor. Now I know you don't like to think that you owe anyone anything but you and every other SAmerican owes *labor* *everytyhing*. The infastructure that has brought so much wealth to you and others has been disporportionatley created by minorities.

Now, it's time to start cutting the pie and you and Bush still want the same share that your guys have always taken. Something wrong here, mt friend. Very wrong. And when our government recognized this inequity a generation ago and set up a few things that barely addresed this issue it did so becasue it recognized that the pie needed to be split more fairly.

There were two chioces. Reparations or opportunity. They chose opportunity. Would you rather have had them pay reparations?
