- Corporation HR departments are starting to sneak in benefits in multilevel categories to provide same benefits but at different cost levels per employee.
Those things are sneak attacks. What they are wanting is blatant disregard of your money to be given to them.

Welp we've about doubled that since the sixties. Guess we can clawback those tax dollars now.

I'd consider it if everyone that accepted it had to renounce their citizenship and never be allowed to return.

Hell, even if you wanted to do this, how the frick would you determine who got it?
Everyone with even a drip of black blood? No matter where they came from? Moved here from Jamaica last week? You get a check?
And, I mean, maybe good old Robert hasn't noticed, but, a LOT of people would be on BOTH ends of the equation.

So what's that work out to per capita? Regardless I can support that amount to every black person who can trace ancestry back to Africa. Payment to be in the form of a cash voucher redeemable at the 1st National Bank of Rwanda. No return permitted.

$14 trillion of reparations for slavery to help reduce racial inequality.
That’s like $300k per person.
In all seriousness this is why I am against reparations. If there was any way to guarantee it would solve anything, it could be considered. But if $14T doesn’t complete eliminate racial tensions between blacks and whites then it’s A complete waste.

No reparations without compensation!

Good. Hurry up with it so I can get mine. Forefathers were white slaves in NC who escaped to Georgia.

Arrest him for attempted extortion.

Good, then start by donating your fortune to the cause. We always hear about "giving back to the community" from people like you.

But here is an idea, why don't we take the cost of these riots and their affect on the economy out of the money allocated first...
So now it's not ANTIFA? Or is it a collaborative effort?
Did whites pay for the economic impact of the Tulsa massacre?

OK. But. Just make sure you funnel that $14T through a responsible Democratic non-profit organization like the Clinton Foundation.
