Summary:In this interview, Reiff proposes a libertarian argument for reparations. In contrast to other theories, his argument focuses on the fact that some property and wealth have been acquired unjustly. Reiff argues that since libertarians believe in rectifying unjustly acquired assets, there is a libertarian argument to be made for redistribution. Reiff argues that this rectification should take the form of a sovereign wealth fund where every adult receives money.
