Thanks Alex for an astute observation. Yes, I did notice the reference to Social Security but the reference was within a quotation, and I didn't want to alter it. In the article I do NOT include Social Security in my calculation of federal welfare benefits that could be construed to be reparations. My estimation is simply based on Temporary Assistance for Needy Families.

Well Joe very reasonable analysis except leaving social security as a welfare benefit unchallenged is

An oversight I’m sure.
