California task force OKs reparations plan that could cost state $800B

California’s reparations task force voted in favor of multiple recommendations Saturday that could cut a minimum of $360,000 in checks to its eligible black residents.

The nine-member committee gave final approval at a meeting in Oakland to a hefty list of proposals aimed at rectifying racial inequalities across the state.

“Reparations are not only morally justifiable, but they have the potential to address long standing racial disparities and inequalities,” Rep. Barbara Lee (D-Calif.) said during the meeting.

The panel’s first vote approved a detailed account of historical discrimination against Black Californians in areas such as voting, housing, education, disproportionate policing and incarceration and others.

The group recommended that the state create a new agency that could provide services to descendants of enslaved people to calculate what the state owes them.

Eventually the state will be nothing but black layabouts collecting money off the Mexicans who are doing all the work, whites having moved out or having been exterminated.

The bastards scammed the Federal government over the dempanic free money programs. I wonder how those California azhos think this one is going to go. LOL. If you haven’t left Cauliphonya yet, you might want to grab your money and go now. You’re about to become a target of the largest swindle and scam ever perpetrated upon civilized people.

I bet she couldn't name one racial disparity or inequality other than the DemoMarxists doing more for illegal aliens than blacks.

Based on examples of people winning the lottery, within a year, those people who get those large payouts will be broke again. One thing that irritates me is they decided to change the word slaves to enslaved people and quickly the lemmings all changed their terminology.

And being that the DemoMarxists are in charge of this, needless to say those checks will be taxed up the wazoo.

This sends a clear message to the people who are already entitled that they are entitled to much more. When they don’t get it, they will riot in the streets, burn buildings, loot, assault, destroy, rape and kill, and the democrats will allow them to do it.

Already, forces are mobilizing to make a real big deal over the death of the mentally ill man on a subway who was threatening the passengers.

Just 3 years after the Floyd riots.

Yep. Look at Rodney King, the $3.8 million settlement he got eventually killed him at 47. All that money did was finance his drug addiction.

The document will now be sent to state lawmakers, who will consider reparations legislation.

This is just some commission making recommendations. Anyone seen realistic projections about how likely the legislature is to pass it?

A ‘task force’??

Is that how we do things now in the USA?

No more laws or legal channels.. just a bunch of idiots, hand-picked by other lawless idiots to accomplish their personal agenda…
