Cory "Retardacus" Booker introduces Senate bill on slavery reparations

Sen. Cory Booker on Monday introduced a bill that would study the possibility of reparations for descendants of slaves, embracing a push that recently has caught the interest of fellow 2020 Democratic presidential candidates.
quote:
The senator from New Jersey said Monday that “this bill is a way of addressing head-on the persistence of racism, white supremacy, and implicit racial bias in our country. It will bring together the best minds to study the issue and propose solutions that will finally begin to right the economic scales of past harms and make sure we are a country where all dignity and humanity is affirmed.”
quote:
“Since slavery in this country, we have had overt policies fueled by white supremacy and racism that have oppressed African-Americans economically for generations,” Booker added. “Many of our bedrock domestic policies that have ushered millions of Americans into the middle class have systematically excluded blacks through practices like GI Bill discrimination and redlining.”
quote:Thank you Captain Obvious...
The push by the Democratic White House hopefuls points to the further importance of race and identity issues within the party. Yet while supporters say reparations are needed to address slavery and racist aspects of American history, critics claim such a move could cost several trillion dollars without solving the issue of racism.

Will die in committee.
Study will show that the avg black has 20% white dna.
% of whites have black dna.
No way to implement.
This looks like scam to get we ashkanazi Jews to give to whites and blacks.

Nothing could harm race relations more than reparations.

If I have to start paying someone due to their skin color I may become virulently racist.

Democrats have wasted about 2 years of tax dollars and time with some of the most ridiculous idiotic things.
-Green New Deal
-"anti-lynching" bill
-Reparations Bill's
-the the entire Russia thing
-blocking literally any attempt to raise any hand to stop immigration
-the voting reform bill that wanted to send tax dollars to political campaigns at a 6-1 match AND allow 16 year olds to vote

As well they should. I hope every individual who was personally and individually owned as a slave when it was legal will have the courage to step forward and file their claim.

Oh come on. I'm sure the 300 guys that comprise the KKK would suddenly just love all black people if the government paid reparations to the tune of several trillions in taxpayer dollars. That would end racism forever!

As you laugh every year it gets closer to happening. Then it will go like South Africa, which will then go like Rhodesia.

My great great great grandfather was enslaved by whitey when they drove the natives out.

Gonna be a lot of lawsuits in parts of current day Africa and the Middle East, places that still have slavery.

You got casinos.
Now there's an idea, let blacks open casinos that cater to other blacks.
