You apparently fail to grasp the distinction between punishment (which no
one in this debate advocates) and civil reparation (returning something to
its rightful owner).
In the case of reparations for slavery, assuming the "rightful owners" were
not all dead, what is it that would be returned to them?
Money.
In a civil action if the wronged party has lost a limb, a family
member,
or property that is now unrecoverable, they receive monetary
compensation instead.
