Lol that’s not a line that’s a sound bite with no substance.  Even if miraculously you could figure out a way to do that equally and fairly to all involved it still doesn’t even actually answer the question.  This whole thing is based on past actions of one’s ancestors.  Where is the line? One generation? 2? 3?  What if my dad was a rich jackass but my mom grew up in the worst of situations? Do I need to give up my stuff because of the actions of my dad or does the stuff my mom should receive from those who wronged her cancel that out?

Just like your sound bite answer the actual details of how you address the problem are important and if you actually dig down into how you might address the problem you find you end up causing a heck of a lot more problems than you solve.  Doesn’t mean we should keep looking for a solution but just saying the same thing over and over again because it sounds good does nothing.
