Good. Glad you cleared that up.
but what I want to know is, why do people living today need to be paid because it happened?
Paid? That's Jesse Jackson's idea. Alan Keyes' plan is a tax break.
I didn't do any of it, nor did anyone else currently living.
No, but the effects of what was done are still there.
And who said anything about you paying anything? It's the federal government giving a tax break to a group it failed to protect, just as states give tax breaks to another group for past wrongs.
It's more practical than Reagan's plan. Or do you think his was better?
Reparations for slavery is just another liberal handout, at everyone else's expense... Period.
Yes, a handout is the liberal form of addressing the problem. A tax cut is the conservative solution to give incentive to work.
Unbelievable.
What, are you saying that Black People dont' work? That's a bit racist isn't it? So they need "incentive" to work? Since when? Every black person I know works, and pay taxes, and no one is holding them down. Why is that?
