quote:"If we must start with" a racist premise, clearly we must reach a poorly founded conclusion. Right?
if we must start with THEIR premise that greater non-White ownership of agricultural land would be a social good for the country.
quote:So now the equation is racism and city parks? Pardon me as a park-lover if I buy out of that comparison.
We need not AGREE with that premise, any more than we must agree that city parks are a social good.
quote:...and...Racism is now a "social good"? Sorry! No dice! We all bleed red through the skin, AH86.
What is the best way to achieve that “social good,”
quote:So the same should be true for aboriginals worldwide?
In 1994, there should have been affirmative goals for non-White land ownership
e.g. How far does this track? Mexican Texas and California?
Native Americans, Aboriginal Britons?
Aboriginals in general?
Then again as we ALL descended from Africa, what gives one racial subsegment of ALL of us such aboriginal rights on the African continent?
quote:Which would inevitably result in taxpaying landowners paying for the government to redistribute their land.
The pragmatic response is for the government to buy property at market value

You COMPLETELY ignored the point of my post.
You clearly want to discuss their premise, and I will be glad to discuss that with you. But not until you address the question that I raised first.
Do you see a better way to achieve their ends, while preserving the economy?
quote:And the only thing you do is go back and argue with the underlying premise. Sad.
IF we accept THEIR idea of “societal good,” how do we achieve that end without destroying the economy and/or starving people?

The stats say that an average of five or six people have died per month in farm attacks since 1994 across a country roughly a quarter the size of the continental US, most of which are attributed to simple violent crime ... rather than some sort of politically-motivated pogrom.
Those figures are cerainly not inconsequential, but they would not constitute “genocide” in a small town ... much less a population of five million ... even if they WERE political.
Yes, the crime problem needs to be addressed, but stop pretending that it is something it is not.

The nice thing about this type of loan is that the collateral cannot walk away.

There are so few white farmers left that a white farmer has a 3.2X higher chance of being murdered than anyone else in a murder country.

Why have no private parties stepped into this obviously profitable venture?

Political instability, paired with the facts that private lenders generally like to see collateral equal to about twice the principal amount and that they seek a profit rather than break-even to achieve a governmental objective.
But AGAIN, I am not saying that such loans would be a capitalist’s wet dream. They would simply be a means of implementing the government’s stated policy.
Why do people on this forum have such difficulty focusing upon the issue under discussion? Is is like the forum mascot is the Fightin’ Tangent.

You posted a diatribe postulating racially based solutions.

with abstract thought.
I'm sorry. Perhaps you don't get it.
You don't presuppose racism as a ""hypothetical solution"" without accepting what you've done. Own it. Then discuss it.
Put another way, try cutting skin color out of your ""abstractions"".

Holy Crap, did you finish High School?
An indicator of abstract thought is the ability to assume ANY set of facts or presumptions and to reason from those assumed facts. To do that, you need NOT accept the premise as true.

quote:Newfangled indeed.
Who pays for that governmental financing?
The borrower. It is this newfangled concept called “interest.”
Here is another "newfangled concept" . . . collateral.
Without it, lenders don't lend, or they lose.
In this instance, borrowers have no appropriate collateral.
So what you are proposing is 2008 FannieMae on steroids.
That fallacy is in turn amplified logarithmically when one anticipates land-use ineptitude of the new owners.
Again, who pays?
Them with the monies pay.

My GOD you are slow. The LAND is the collateral. The government does not NEED to make a profit, and having land as collateral minimizes thae chances of affirmative LOSS.
No, it will not be profitable. It is not SUPPOSED to be profitable. It is SUPPOSED to satisfy governmental objectives regarding land ownership.
And the “ineptitude” issue is minimized if you sell to the former longtime employees on THAT property, as I suggested in the original post on this issue.
AGAIN, this is not a program that I would CHOOSE to implement here. It is the only program with any likelihood of meeting THEIR objectives in THEIR country without wrecking the economy or starving people.
TRY to separate those concepts in that tiny organ you use in place of a brain.
