Katt, I am just as conservative (at least) as Alan Keyes, and I too have a
"Once-and-For-All"
reparations plan, which I am going to recommend to him:
1: A one-time $50,000 Tax Credit to the heads of legally constituted households who can reasonably show descent from slaves, who have no prior felonies, and who can demonstrate a reasonable history of voting Republican in 10 consecutive municipal, state, or Federal elections. The children of said lash-up to be legitimate or legitimately adopted, with head of said household responsible for their support.
2: A one-generation Tuition Reimbursement Plan for those children.
3: The option of receiving the tax credit in cash in a monitored checking account and 1 (one) round-trip ticket for leaving the US to return to an African homeland of the recipient's choice for at least 5 years, with full technical, material, and medical support for re-establishing life in that homeland, to continue as long as needed.
4: Should Congress pass such an act, all "Affirmative Action" legal provisions would become null and void.
5: Should Congress pass such an act, all minor children now the subjects of AFDC payments shall be placed in government school-type institutions modeled on the Carlyle Barracks, for socialization and Americanization training. Main point of the curriculum:
"It was the Republican Party that ended slavery in the US. It was the Democrat Party that began and promoted segregation. And how to look that up."
After this legislation passes, (to take place in the year 2014, so everybody can comply with the voting requirement mentioned in 1.) anyone mentioning the word "Race," in any conversation anywhere on American soil is to be tattooed on the forehead and elsewhere with a big red "R," and is to be forbidden access to any bar where I might wish to stop and consume an adult beverage of my choice, so help me Obama Barak.(Come on, ya gotta love that name ... kinda like a super hero!)
