California will hand over cash expropriated from hardworking taxpayers to drug dealers, provided they are black and have criminal records. Yes, I’m serious:
It’s all part of an effort in the Golden State to help more minorities become “marijuana entrepreneurs.” On New Year’s Day, California became the ninth state to legalize cannabis for recreational use, but officials are worried that not enough blacks will qualify for the permits needed to sell weed legally. To address this “problem,” Los Angeles, Oakland and other cities have created “equity programs” that offer no-interest loans and other perks to people who live in poor black neighborhoods and have been convicted of drug crimes.
Those unlucky enough not to be Persons of Politically Preferred Pigmentation will find it harder to get a permit to sell marijuana.
If you’re a white applicant, you can improve your own chances of receiving a permit by “incubating” an equity [i.e., black] applicant, which means making him a 50% partner in the business or giving him floor space in your establishment, rent-free.
If this sort of tyrannical race-based lunacy sounds familiar, you could be thinking of South Africa under black rule.
The progressives who dreamed this up sold it as a way to compensate blacks, who have been disproportionately affected by the war on drugs.
Because this includes drugs laws, they are victims of the War on Drugs, and must be compensated at the expense of the law-abiding.
Coming next to California: free taxpayer money for black convicted thieves to assist them in their careers as wealth redistribution entrepreneurs.
Again we see that liberalism is not merely wrong; it is depraved.
What a shithole.
Words fail.
Yes.
Oh, this will work out well. </sarc>
At this point the only cure is nukes.
What, one of the $h1+h0[e nations?
Can't say that, it's Trump-ism appropriation...

That’s your square inch over there in the corner behind the magazine rack.
Good luck ‘partner’
[At this point the only cure is nukes.]
Boy, it sure seems like it. I never ask, “How can it get worse?” because I’m afraid of the answer(s).
More proof Leftists hate minorities and the poor.
This is fake news, right??
Wow, staggering beyond belief.
Until 12/31/17, we locked black and white drug dealers up.
On 1/1/18, we give money to black drug dealers to peddle poison legally.
Uneffing believable.
CA is the “country” that Trump was talking about when he used the understatement “s...holes”.
Looks like they are afraid of blacks getting off the (drug) plantation. I figured they would find a way, but this is even more sinister than I could have dreamt.
Progressives love figurative slavery. Whether it’s tieing down mexicans with slave wages or ham stringing blacks with racist rhetoric and welfare, or selling a new generation of poor whites into drug slavery; apparently they cant help themselves. Sad.
God help us when the Liberal technocrats get the dictator of their dreams.
Its only fair because whites always have an unfair advantage in legal activities because of work ethic

Get out of there before your property values collapse.
The Government of California never ceases to shock me.
