Because it wasn't the US Government that started slavery.

At the time, the King of England OWNED the land in america. It was his personal business. He made LOTS of money off the colonies. Imported people to work for free meant that he gets to make lots more money, and thats what he did.

The King of England, George the 3rd, was such a massive dick, that the people of the colonies decided to take his property for themselves -- and we're stuck with the darkies the King imported.

So, if the black people want reparations, they should go to the guy who still sits on all the family money that slavery earned in Buckingham palace.
