24. I wonder if they fine all the countries in Middle East
and beyond for holding Jews as slaves. How about all the other slaves held in Rome? How about returning all the land that became spoils of war to those families that inhabited it? How far back do you want to go? Let's return all the land to the Indians and we can all move back to where our families originated. This argument is ridiculous and so is fining a company that once traded in slavery when it was legal and part of the fabric of our economy. Our own government was founded by slave owners.
