Uhh... 60 years of Affirmative Action “is” their reparation. Too bad if many did not take advantage of it...

“Trump gave us a good scare last year. But if we talk about a BIG pot of money for the darkies, they’ll come back to our plantation and soon be happily pickin’ cotton for us again!”

Whatever number they come up with will not be considered enough by the dems.

To avoid this they will need a formula. They will likely estimate the lifetime equivalent wages of each slave increased by inflation. At least I can see some sort of formula for that piece.

But then who gets the benefits? That’s where it all falls apart.

My guess is each family that believes they descend from slaves applies for the payment. Just like they don’t want voter id they will assume each application made by a person whose race has been established as “black” or “african american” is legit and the feds will pay out.

Will Obama get reparations?

Here’s what needs to happen:
Native Americans, Irish-Americans, and Asians who were interred during WW2 should demand reparations too. Let’s see how the Dems handle that. Use Cloward-Piven against them.

How about a one way economy ticket to wherever they want in Africa?

The ties to Africa of “African-Americans’ is as tenuous as their ties to the institution of slavery that was abolished in the U.S. generations ago.

They are not owed a penny. Not the thinnest of dimes.

We are simply not in any way in arrears to black people in this country.

So the descendants of the thousand of black slave owners will get reparations?

And the people who had nothing to do with slavery will get taxed to pay for them?

So, the person from South Africa who descended from a Brit gets reparations? Not on your life! This money is not meant for him even if he’s African-American.

One finger joe is banging those nails in the wooden box around the coffin of the USA. Who will remove those nails?

The question is: will Kamala (Heels-Up) be on the recipient or payer side?

America may be closer to reparations dictatorship than ever before. The Regime is now seizing the power of the purse.

What about all the white slaves brought into America. There were a lot of them.

Richmond is the creep who remarked that a certain Trump adviser looked just about right on her knees. Now we know why he’s a biden adviser.

Just think, all those trillions spent on welfare since 1965. So much for the great society.

I thought having a 2 term black (ok, half black) POTUS was to end all this.

All these years of welfare should have taken care of reparations.

Desegregation was supposed to have put them on equal footing.

Non discriminatory hiring bumped out hiring the most qualified.

Didn’t we have a war to end slavery generations ago? Ok. Fine. Reparations to anyone who is a slave.

The left has to create more debt and poverty to maintain absolute control over this Republic.
