The majority of whites have acquired what they own by working for it. If their employer payed them with stolen wealth, who is guilty of living off of the proceeds of theft? The employee or the employer? Suppose, for the sake of argument, that the employee is to be considered guilty of sharing in stolen goods. In that case, the requests from blacks for special advantages in employment, is a request for a share of what has been stolen from other blacks. I can see that this is a highly moral position.
