I’m half black so how much do I get?

[Texas Eagle]

You still get the $800,000. It’s just that your non-black half will pay it to your black half.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

What a cheapskate!

Why not a million, so they can all be millionaires for fifteen minutes before the piss it all away on bling, Escalades and hoes.

[Fiddlstix]

You get the half that has to pay windfall taxes

[Captain Peter Blood]

Only if that is the last thing ever done. They are on their own, no more white guilt or anything else. When they blow all that money nothing ever again.

[PubliusMM]

And, we are going to credit back the trillions we’ve pissed away on misguided, libturd social welfare programs, right?
That means the black community still owes the rest of us.

[CodeToad]

How about blacks pay for all the crimes they’ve committed and all the prisons we had to build?

[NonValueAdded]

And bill them for The Great Society.

[rktman]

Hmmmm. My kin folk fought for the Union Army out of New York. Wonder if that has any value.

[CMailBag]

Higher Ed is the enemy!!!

[neverevergiveup]

Well, I want there to be a class action suit that recovers 90% of all tuition paid in the past 50 years - since the quality of education and the abilities of the faculty are nil - at best.

[shelterguy]

I suddenly identify as a black woman. Send me da money, yo.

[GnuThere]

Comma,La has to pay some of it since she has slave-owners in her past.

[abbastanza]

Makes perfect sense. Reparations from taxpayers who never owned slaves to people who were never slaves.

[GnuThere]

Don’t forget the weed.

[A Navy Vet]

What is a black household? Who defines that?

[DPMD]

Any of these so-called BS eparations should come entirely from the democrat party for obvious historical reasons.

[DPMD]

I will be happy to identify as black for a cut.

[Leaning Right]

I wish I would have known about this before I sent my census in. Then I would have self-identified as black. After all, I can really use $800,000.

I think I’ll contact the Census Bureau and ask for a new form.
