Ted Re...The goal I want is to mitigate as much of the disparity that exists between the races as possible.

Why? Do you want to erase all differences between the races. A lot of the economic differences occur because of the differences in lifestyles. To even up the wage disparities, you must either change the blacks preferences to match whities, or even up the pay scales for the different jobs. I would suggest the later would be easier.

We are paying for the sins of our fathers.

Talk for yourself. My greatgrandfather came directly from Germany in the early 1900s and settled in near where I live now. As a small farmer,and also my grandfather and father, they didn't hire help so they didn't discriminate against anyone, and therefore, we don't owe anyone. If you want the slave owners to pay damages, fine, then go after them,but leave me out of it. And what do the students at Michigan have to do with it? Slavery and racism was never popular in Michigan, so why should they have to pay for your paranoia.
