If your family gained wealth because of slavery then you need to walk away from that wealth. Start over and create your own wealth.

I support high inheritance taxes. The trust fund babies need to contribute to our nation.

Another example would be the 4 thousand miles of dead coal mine polluted streams in Pa. The coal mine families are still around. How about they pay up. Same with families who owned slaves.
