Believe it or not, some people do work extra hard in order to ensure their descendants have an easy life. I'm not weighing in on whether that is wise or not but it is definitely a thing.

Yeah, and that's why white people are richer than black people today, even though slavery ostensibly ended 200 years ago. It's time that we outlaw this behaviour.

you're gonna get downvoted but no amount of downvotes will change the fact that black people weren't allowed to own things in america until most things were already owned by white people.
