Freshman Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) suggested that black Americans should be exempt from paying taxes as a form of reparations but then said it might not work because of the black people who are “not paying taxes in the first place.”
Crockett, who recently made headlines for perpetuating the debunked myth that U.S. border patrol officers “whipped” Haitian migrants, was giving an interview on “The Black Lawyers Podcast” when she brought up the idea.
“I don’t remember which celebrity, but it was actually a celebrity,” the progressive congresswoman recalled to host Jehan “J” Carter of the proposal she saw — apparently from an unnamed famous person.

It has been working for Rev Al.
Slaves didn’t pay them either. How’d that work out?
And tens of thousands of self loathing White people will agree with her.
Most of them don’t pay that much anyway
And Jesse Jackson.
600 thousand dead isn’t reparations enough?
Someone tell Wesley Snipes...
Does he get them years in jail back?
Well, I guess they shouldn’t continue to receive government benefits too? Seems fair to me. After trillions in welfare and related programs that doesn’t seem to have solved the problems of the ghetto nationwide, maybe those dollars should be shut off too. Waste is waste, and the taxpayers should have been tired of it decades ago.
When it comes to slavery in the US they always leave out step 1a.....African tribes were capturing and selling each other to slave traders.
To wit I speak 👇

Those of us who have been paying their tab all our lives grow tired of these shenanigans.
It’s time to cut off the gravy train. All it has brought us is crime, hostility, ingratitude and rampant cultural rot.
Harsh punishment for criminal behavior, and total scrapping of Great Society benefits are in immediate order.
I think that thought occurred to her later, and so she then suggested a "negative tax," a payout, to blacks instead.
IT WILL NEVER BE ENOUGH.......EVER
“Crockett, who recently made headlines for perpetuating the debunked myth that U.S. border patrol officers “whipped” Haitian migrants...”
And all of this time I have been unaware that we share a border with Haiti. Was this where they were “strappin’ em?”
For reparations I think the US should buy them land in Africa if they wish and free them of their citizenship.
How about blacks GIVING reparations for all their crime and welfare costs — despite all the DEI they’ve received for decades?
Reperations for what?
I win...I knew this was coming...I said that making blacks pay tolls is racist and tolls are a form of taxation....Coming next...ONLY WHITE PEOPLE SHOULD PAY TAXES!!!
“”ONLY WHITE PEOPLE SHOULD PAY TAXES!!!””
What happens when there they run out of White people??? LOL
Welfare helping blacks more often than whites was supposed to be reparations. I guess that was a lie.
Evidently nothing is ever enough for the Dims. Never give Dims what they want under the false premise that they'll quit their whining.
