Because blacks want the money....and the conveniences of living in the U.S.
They wouldn't want to go to Africa and have to carry a basket full of water on their heads or shower underneath a goat that's urinating.
Plus, Africans despise American blacks.
BTTT
This is VERY good news.
I hear you. But when was the last time facts and truth mattered to leftists and commies when it comes to pushing their agenda?
Definitely illegal, wrong and unconstitutional.
It has the goal of totally destroying this country for all time. There will be NO recovery from reparations.
Do not think these people are just kidding. They are serious. They think they can make the country communist by taking money from those who earn it and by giving it to those who refuse to earn it and are responsible for their own failures.
The recipients will NEVER agree to an end of it. It will be in perpetuity. Do you think that little babies born after the passage of the law will NOT get their 10 million?
If enacted, it will be permanent. Think of how many hours you will have to work to pay for this. How long will 7/8 of the population have to work to fund the 10 million given to each of the 1/8 that isn’t working? Little math problem that I can’t do. My estimate is that the 7/8 will be forced to work 3 jobs just in order to live in poverty in order to earn enough to pay their share of the 1/8 of the 10 million. Actually, it looks like it can’t be done. There is no way that anyone can work enough hours to earn enough money to pay a million in taxes. Can’t happen. Will not happen. So the money will simply be created by the government, leading to runaway inflation and the collapse of the economy.
A thought experiment. Do you think that ANY of the recipients of the 10 million is ever going to lift a finger to WORK? (I know they hate the word “work” - with reparations they’ll never work again).
Another thought. Why on earth would any of the normal people ever work again? ALL your earnings will be taken in taxes to pay the happy recipients, who will continue to assault you in the subway, steal your cars, rape the women, loot stores, and will go right on merrily hating you and giving you the finger?
I don't think so. The anti-White solidarity among POC and young people of every stripe is strong. It is tightly woven into the fabric of the entire culture.
Hey, it’s good that the Government of California has come out claiming they have been systemically racist now all that is left for them to come out and admit they have been systemically stupid since 1933.
It would make much more sense for some sort of reparations for the Chinese, Japanese, Philippino and other Asian peoples for the treatment received in California through various racist laws enacted both locally and statewide. For example, after the 1906 earthquake in SF, Japanses school children were not permitted to attend schools with white children despite their ghetto schools having burned down post quake. The SF Chronicle and Examiner battled each other with front page stories of the odious and foul nature of the Japanese people living in California...
As for the Chinese and the building of the transcontinental railroad...that is another story.
Despite California’s obivous racist laws, those populations continued to survive until we have today where once again they are cast aside for the crime of actually achieving something with their lives.
Perhaps, when it comes to social issues that costs Hispanics and Asians nothing while promising virtue signaling points. But this is real money at stake here. And there's a lot more enmity between Hispanics/Asians against the blacks than you might think.
Hispanics and Asians are no different from the rest of America. They believe what they are told to believe.
I bet it survives all votes/court cases.
No one will want to be the one that voted against it.
already defaulted California can’t afford to do this anyways.
According to the article this is a pile of pomp and circumstance and won’t make it. Too many hurdles.
Probably a good reason for riots if the court)s) have enough real balls to throw this whole pile of toilet paper out the courthouse doors.
Great points. The grievances can be endless so why not live in the present if you were not directly impacted. I do think giving reparations to Japanese Americans who got their properties confiscated and shipped off to interment camps is legitimate. Those people had a case and the loss of freedom and property was a wrong, though I understand the spirit of the actions that the FDR administration took.
with what this county has become..
if I could find better to go do, I’d take that deal. Just saying.
Bingo. they will do just that. The courts should just refuse to hear it on the federal level.
you think the BLM riots were bad so far? wait until the gimme-crowd realizes this was all for show, and they aren’t each getting $20M dollars.
That is the stark reality of the gimmedat mindset. Also, wait till the SCOTUS knocks down student loan “forgiveness”.
No way Cali has enough gelt to pay for all this. So I predict that if and when the Dims take back both Houses of Congress, a law will be passed that the other 49 states will have to chip in for the balance of what is owed these poor “descendants of slaves”.
I favor an approach like that. You can have reparations (Amount TBD) BUT...you must leave the country, and renounce your citizenship, and sign a form forever preventing you, and any descendants of you from ever reentering the country.
