Reparations

WestlinnDuck

Any leftards at the Tavern supporting government reparations to blacks? Like affirmative action for blacks, how are we going to define black for reparations for the damage that slavery which ended in 1865 supposedly has on blacks in 2019? Does Tiger get reparations? How about Ilhan Omar, the Somali refugee that is now a Congresswoman?
My pioneer English based ancestors were originally from New England and arrived in Oregon in the 1850s. For the historically illiterate leftards, Oregon was a Union state. My Swedish ancestors arrived in Minnesota in the 1880s. Probably saw a black person once a year, if that. Tough to blame Detroit and Chicago on them.
Should we have a special tax to pay for the reparations and who should pay the tax? Certainly not Michael Jordan or Oprah. Frankly, the whole idea of reparations is beyond toxic and should disqualify any candidate for US public office from any serious consideration. But for some reason, it doesn’t.
I eagerly await the leftard responses. No one loves an honest discussion about race more than a leftard. Flail away.

It's very clear you don't even have a basic understanding of the discussion.

You still sticking with this?

Enlighten us with your understanding

Just more of that honest discussion about race that leftards are so eager for.

You mean the discussion you lied about and claimed that only white racist were saying reparations involved direct cash payments to individuals and then I showed you a poll where over half of all blacks wanted reparations to include direct cash payments and then you ran and hid like a Kunt. Are you talking about that “discussion” Hondo?

OK I'm all for reparations of they are paid by the descendants of the rich democrats that actually owned them. They should also be paid to every descendent of union soldiers by the same people.

Reparations are a terrible fucking idea. But there is a lot of merit in working towards more equality of outcome opportunity in our country.

That should always be our goal

We should also note when progress is made and celebrate it so we have more

And I did see what you did there. Equal opportunity is not equal results

Here's an example from the Yella "Reform" Country Club Republican Party...

We should consider basically free vocational training for anyone in this country who wants to learn an in demand trade- i.e., carpentry, fixing cars, welding, etc. These aren't glamorous but are a ticket to middle class standard of living. Right now in Seattle it takes weeks to get an appliance repaired because there's a shortage of people with this skill.

But the Bernies Bros can fuck off with free college for all. If you want to get a BA in ethnic studies at UC Riverside that needs to be on your own fucking dime or you get an academis or sport schollie.

I think everyone should pay a one-time reparations payment to the government of $10,000 and watch it shrink to $865 by the time it reaches the descendants of slaves.

LebamDawg

Reparations are great - I would pay $2 million to each survivor that exists today.

When I heard Bernie say that on the campaign trail, it was the nail in his senility coffin for me. Since I didn't want to believe he was actually that naive and stupid, I attributed it to his age. No offense to Race Bannon, but the aging process can be merciless.

Why dont the Africans who sold their fellow Africans into slavery pay reparations?

Swaye

If we are handing out reparations I'd like to get some of that. Oh wait, casinos. Yeah. I'm good.

So - anybody north of the Mason Dixon line is exempt from this bullshit since they already saved the slaves once.

Even if we did pay reparations, most of that money would wind up back in the hands of rich people within a few years.
