To equate the burden of paying taxes to what slaves endured is preposterous. One doesn't have to experience slavery personally to understand the vast difference between the two.

Your reading comprehension is what is preposterous.

I'd be glad to pay slaves reparations, unfortunately the last person to claim to be a slave died in 1971. He also claimed to be the preposterous age of 124.

No one alive even had parents who were slaves and only a handful of extremely elderly people could even possibly make the claim their grandparents were born under slavery.

The truth is most African Americans are 5-6 generations or more removed from slavery, and if you want to mention Jim Crow laws, most of the people who experienced that are also dead.
