Sorry to say this, but I don't think they really do deserve it. Sure, it would
be great if we could go back in time and compensate the people who actually were
kicked off of their homeland, but i don't think it's gonna happen. Why should
they be compensated for something that doesn't directly affect them? Of course
what the pioneers did years ago was wrong, but I don't think I should be making
reparations. I'm part Irish, should I be compensated by the British for the
famine in which they stole Ireland's produce and meat? Should I go through all
of my history and find every treaty ever broken and be compensated for them? I
don't think so. I don't understand the rationale. Please, someone expla
