The Form of Compensation (John Speaking)
						Return To Main Path
			John

All right, let's look at the individual level. I'm willing to assume that indirect harm should be compensated just like direct harm. I'll go along with Ann on that. But I think the form of compensation should vary with the facts of each individual case. Can we do that?

Think of the variety of cases we find in the black community: A 22 year old student applying to a professional school, a 30 year old lawyer hoping for a promotion, a young college grad applying for a job, a factory worker faced with a layoff, a chronically unemployed middle aged male living off day labor and General Assistance, a mother on welfare with two children, a pregnant teenage girl, a high school drop out, or a child in a dangerous housing project. That's just a sample of reality.
