As much as I would love to see the Democrats get soaked, I would hate even more if this set a precedent for African Americans going after greater amounts from the US Government. This idea of reparations for wrongs committed on one's ancestors (parents or grandparents or further back) is just part of a greedy personal-enrichment scheme on the part of people who don't want to work. Why should I have to pay, today, through the nose for my great great grandfather having owned 3 slaves in antebellum TN? Nuts. The "Great Society" has already effected BILLIONS of dollars in transfer payments from me and my family to them and theirs ... enough is ENOUGH.
I agree with you about why reparations are a bad idea. But the article does make a great point about the Democratic Party.
Just shut up and pay up my friend you don't have any rights to any of your personal property, money land ect. Have you not been paying attention to the supream cort. You will pay and you will smile while counting the money. You will pay, your grandchildren and great grandchildren will pay. They want and you pay wake up friend it's just how it is, and if you don't like it pay some more and when your money is gone you will give up your land, and when that's gone you will give your blood, and when that's gone you will hand over your country. YOU WILL PAY!
