Are they willing to turn themselves into "Wage Slaves" to support the continuous flow of free stuff to the black underclass?
Or do they figure they can promise anything for free to the blacks because someone else will pay for it?

I presume they think they can offer reparations, and just increase the money they get from the Federal Government to offset it.
Of course blacks and whites can co-exist.
Just not with blacks who live on the Democrat Plantation.
The blacks who reject that wholly and embrace free market principles and Constitutional principles are accepted by, and get along just fine with whites.
The Marxist blacks who don’t, and their white Leftist plantation owners, well, they are the ones that are going to cause a civil war.
would seem to have made reparations back during the Civil War when it changed its laws to allow Negroes to enter the state. All blacks in Illinois got their of their own free will and volition.
ANOTHER Chicago slush fund.
I hate to deliver the news, but white people are still owed reparations from the black riots of 1968.
I want my check, and I want it now!
You are right. My ancestors didn’t arrive in America until well after slavery was abolished so there is no way I am responsible for the past. And I doubt very much that most blacks are descended from those same slaves brought here. If they want money, go after Obama since his family was involved in selling slaves; or get a f’n job! By the way, the first slave owner was a black man!
What will Chicago blacks spend their monthly $3.87 reparations check on?
But the Dimocrats can still say “See, we got you reparations! Vote for us!”.
Reparations will come from thier state not federal financial aid!!! These sh##holes THEY HAVE CREATED should be funded by these very shi##holes

Bribe them with their own money? Who knew?!!
And now we know what all of this has been about all along....Reparations.
Well, what took them so long? They ginned up the riots, destroyed buildings, burnt them down, stole merchandise, killed people, and it took them 2 weeks to call for reparations? It was on the menu from the start.
And I’ve already paid. In lost job opportunities, in high taxes, in quality of life lost.
Yes, but reparations should consist of school vouchers, which a recipient can use at any private, parochial, church, or home school, provided that the tuition per pupil is less than half the expenses per pupil of Chicago public school. Chicago public schools will see their budget reduced accordingly through layoffs and closures of failing and violent schools.
Alternatively, reparations for criminal adults should consist of room and board at state prison upon conviction. Chicago must start arresting anti-black criminals and turning them to the county for trial and conviction and thence to the state for removal during long terms or life terms at state penitentiary. The city of Chicago will save enormously on medical expenses and property repair that the incarcerated cease to inflict on city persons and property. Some upstanding black Chicagoans even can get good jobs with the city police under this plan.
Neither measure of course can inflict racial discrimination, so all citizens of the United States of America of appropriate age and character will be eligible for these “reparations” programs.
I penciled out reparations, as represented in unpaid wages. this is what I came up with:
At a rate of 1.5M slaves (2M total minus 500K freemen)
x $120/yr wages (2 meals free board) (child wages were 1/2 adult wages but I went with adult wages for farm laborer at 1850 rates which was higher than 1750 rates)
= $180M x 20 years expected labor based on life expectancy of 35-37yrs (1700-1870), also adjusts for nonworking time of youth/injury/disease/old age)
= $3.6B
interest rates from 1750-1865 were relatively stable at around 3%
= 5.4M/yr x 20 yrs
= $108M + $3.6B
= $3.7B
= $3.7Bx10 (20 years x 10 = 200 yrs - 1660-1860)
= $37B / 40M current descendants = $925.00/ea
$37B is probably close to the last Rainbow Coalition squeeze on corporations. (Where did all that money go?)
As for loss of freedom, that would be a lawsuit against Ghana and Nigeria, Portugal, various pirates along the Barbary Coast and assorted muslims. Not that it would get very far. Just as the 1M slaves stolen from Europe will forever be uncompensated.
Citizens? That seems awfully exclusionary against the recently arrived illegal immigrant from Nigeria who suffered a lifetime of mistreatment by Chicago... or something like that.
Amid winds of change as America confronts its race issue, Captain Ahab and the Chicago City Council crew set out to pursue the great white whale.

Reparations was never about repaying families that were once slaves. It’s about the redistribution of wealth and a constant reminder the democrat keep giving black people that they are the under class that aren’t smart enough to build their own lives.
Why is it that the dems always treat black people as unfit for doing things on their own? Talk about systemic racism. That’s it right there in a net shell.
