No, this ISN’T going to happen. It’s just a ploy to bring back the black vote that they’re losing at the moment.
Reparations should mean resettlement in Africa, where he can work to pay reparations for the crimes committed by American blacks.
If we accept the theory that the war between the States was to free the slaves, then he also owes the descendants of the Yankees who fought for his people.
Give me a FN break!
3 million blacks x $1 million each = $3 trillion.
Just sell more lottery tickets to cover that.
There must be some really old black folks to have worked for free for slave owners.
Given the current environment, I don’t know if reparations will ever come to pass; nowadays they are just cloaked in different language (”guaranteed basic income”, etc.).
Paterson NJ has already instituted a pilot program where 110 families receive $400 per month, and the income limits are $30K for individuals and $88K for families. Given the demographics of Paterson, this is de facto reparations. Libs have given up on most blacks assimilating, so the plan B is to just give them the means to live like real working Americans - in the hopes that they will turn away from being America’s permanent criminal underclass.
Woohoo freegubmint cash $350,000!!!!
AND land!!!
I think of those whites people who gave there life to end slavery, what do their families get? Some blacks owned slaves what do they get?
Exactly right.
They should be given the option to pay it back slowly by becoming honest productive citizens (choose your own career path), earning incomes, and paying taxes on those incomes
The Left will push and push everything until they finally get their ultimate goal: white genocide.
From spring 2021:
“The mayor of Newark, New Jersey, is launching an experiment in which hundreds of individuals will receive free money for a period of two years, following a similar — and advocates say successful — guaranteed income pilot program in Stockton, California. Newark Mayor Ras J. Baraka, a Democrat and member of the advocacy group Mayors for a Guaranteed Income, first presented the idea in March 2019 to help the city’s struggling citizens. Now, after the COVID-19 pandemic put plans on hold, Baraka is unveiling a pilot program called the Newark Movement for Economic Equity. The two-year program will pay a random selection of 400 Newark residents, ages 18 and older and with household incomes that are 200% below the federal poverty level, a sum of $12,000 each, over two years. Half of those individuals will receive $500 monthly payments, with the other half receiving four payments of $3,000, paid out semi-annually.”
These ARE reparations; they are being done in the blackest parts of NJ.
Another poster points out that the SALT deduction should be eliminated because the state taxes are what allows these states to piss away money like this while asking federal taxpayers to subsidize them. As a NJ resident (we have high municipal taxes here), I agree; Trump’s income tax overhaul left many NJ homeowners better suited to taking the increased standard deduction than use the SALT deduction anyway. I’m not weeping for anyone who pays $24K in municipal taxes; they can afford to lose the deduction.
And they won’t stop with Whites. They’ll kill everyone who doesn’t toe the party line (with enthusiasm).
Considering blacks , as a whole, are a net drain on society it would make more sense for them to have to pay every white person reparations
Whoa! These over melanin-ated jive turkeys are ramping it up from the original $250,000 reparations and a one way ticket to Nigeria.
Deep State is ginning up a race war as part of divide and conquer.
Too many of our fellow Americans are allowing themselves to be suckered into it.
10-20 acres goes deeply against the NWO, Agenda 21, Agenda 2030, WEF, et.al.
You will be welded into your micro space in the hive and be given your digital money if your social score is adequate.
1) chaos
2) martial law
3) Profit! (or something else......)
Inconvenient fact -
Every descendant of slaves living today exists only because slavery existed. Without slavery here in the United States, they never would have been born, not here, not Africa, nowhere.
They would never have been born because their ancestors never would have met and procreated. It was slavery that created the circumstances which led to their very existence.
I am not saying slavery was a good thing, I think it was repulsive but without it, the world and the people in it would be very different.
$3.5K for people who never worked a day in their misbegotten lives?
These fools do not realize this whole debate is to stir up hatred amongst the people. DIVIDE, DIVIDE and DIVIDE. Get the people to hate each other. Doesn’t matter how you do it, just do it! This is a perfect opportunity to stir up racial hatred.
