Honest question asked by my youngest kiddo tonight

Will they continue to push to pass these bills for every generation?

We are bringing back slavery instead due to the fiscal irresponsibility of this proposal. I hate it, but apparently it has to be done.

They would benefit from the generational wealth that was created from the initial reparations.

Those receiving the well deserved reparations would obviously invest it wisely to set up for their future generations, in no way shape or form would them buy Cadillacs, rims or J’s for they feet and blow it.

They will be paid in perpetuity until the white man has nothing else to give. Then the white man will be killed and their assets seized. See South Africa for reference.

The grandchildren of Holocaust survivors or the descendants of Union soldiers who were killed or the Irish who came during the potato famine or the people who fled the Communists in Vietnam or Cambodia will undoubtedly enjoy paying for this. The suffering of their anscestors being less trendily lucrative and all…

Do Patrick Mahomes, Lenny Kravitz, & Slash just get 50% when the checks go out or since they are half White that gets held against them& they get nothing? They still haven't clarified this important issue.

No way. Once they pay them out, then equality will happen, and no one will ever have want or need of anything out of their grasp again.

How does decades of affirmation action, quotas, scholarships, other special protections, prior $ given with prior claims including to race hustlers like Sharpton and Jesse, prior charity, destroyed communities when they become a majority that were good beforehand, same for destroyed school districts, costs for out of proportion welfare usage, and costs for out of proportion violent crime work? At federal, state, and local levels.

I think a general made the 40 acres and a mule to a set number of soldiers and never officially promised to all slaves.

What about the decedents of black slave owners? Do they get left out?

Everyone needs to pay far, far, more attention to what racial preferences (vs merit) due to a country. The most unsafe country I can remember being in. Water shortages ten years ago. Rampant crime in all areas. Now electricity shortages. But yeah, Obama telling everyone how it was whitey's fault back then sure fixed things. I'm sure there are still five feet of concertina wire topped by another few feet of electric fence will keep us safe. Right? At a Marriott.
