So basically, San Francisco is going to switch from dumping cash into High-Speed Rail to dumping cash into Reparations?
Yup. Consider that:
— CA was never a slave state or territory
— CA never had “seperate but equal laws” or a poll-tax
Basically, these payments are being demanded because they felt “slighted”.
true story
SF will go bankrupt and demand money from the state. The state will demand money from the fed, and normal people will be forced to pay for this insanity.
And not long ago it was $250,000. Now $5,000,000. Why not make it fifty million Kazillaion!
Maybe even print a new design on each one, and this...”This note is issued and legal tender only in certain nations of Africa.”
Much like US money was printed with a dark border and the words HAWAII back in WW II Hawaii, just in case the Japanese conquored Hawaii we could declare such notes void of value.
Does anyone really think that this would cause a sudden influx of people back to African Countries?
Issue the money at the first of the month, and someone will break out a set of “Bones” and most will be flat broke in a few weeks demanding MORE!
And that is called paying the Dane-geld;
But we’ve proved it again and again,
That if once you have paid him the Dane-geld
You never get rid of the Dane.—KIPLING
Are all members of the committee black ?
And, all of the other 49 states, especially the red ones, will pay for this.
Anyone who thinks the $$ will actually find its way to those the laws stipulate when “handled” by an organization run in CaCaLand..... Well, you are dumber than suspected. This is gonna be just like the BulletTrain and Solyndra.
Kinda along the same lines as Hunter’s “rent” payments to the BigGuy.
The rubber will hit the road when the vote on the appropriation is made by the Board of Supervisors. Talk is cheap, this is not. Something tells me that the Board is going to find that more study is needed
I wonder how poor and/or middle working class whites and Hispanics will like having to do without in order to create a new class of millionaires? I can just see this having a happy ending/s
Not a dime to the homeless. SF hates the homeless. This proves it.
No one. These beautiful, stately homes are one of HUNDREDS left behind when the 'wealthy' moved out of Detroit, MI. The same will happen in SF, as it does anywhere that Socialism rears it's ugly head. The 'producers' leave. Those beautiful 'Painted Ladies' are doomed.
The Supervisors will have to come up with something. They are in a hard spot!
You forgot steal from the rich what they would give Newsom’s opponent for president.
Subtract all the welfare benefits over the same time frame. Then the blacks owe whites 50 billion dollars. At least.
This will go a long way in relieving the wealthiest San Franciscoans of their guilt of success.
“Because those proponents of reparations are Democrats, one should consider the Democrat participation in such things as the Confederacy, Jim Crow Laws and the Ku Klux Klan. Perhaps a class action lawsuit against the Democrat Party, instead of collecting money from innocent California citizens, would be in order.”
Here, here!
Fine, but where are they going to get $50 billion? No way the taxpayers can afford that and the tech companies won’t either.
SAN FRANCISCO is only 7 square miles of territory....
Pretty expensive budget, IMO.
