1. Would the reparation be paid once to those currently alive or would each generation going forward get reparations?
2. what about the former black slave owners descendants, should they pay or be excluded?
3. would there be a deduction for the percentage of "other blood"?
4 Would there be a deduction for previous welfare payments?
5. Would there be a deduction for the cost of incarceration for those convicted of a felony and sent to prison?
6. Should the reparation be subject to seizure to pay for unpaid child support?

A lot of unanswered questions.

You're talking about William " April" Ellison Jr who was the largest black slave owner out of 171 black slave owners in South Carolina.
The largest slave owner in SC was also the largest slave owner in America and he was a white guy.

Joshua John Ward, of Georgetown County, South Carolina, was the largest American slaveholder, dubbed "the king of the rice planters". In 1850 he held 1,092 slaves; Ward was the largest slaveholder in the United States during his lifetime. In 1860 his heirs (his estate) held 1,130 or 1,131 slaves.

Note: April Ellison Jr was the largest slave owner in the area of Columbia and Sumter.

Democrats

they want to kill babies in the womb, and phrase it "woman's reproductive right"

They want to open the border

They want to protect sanctuary cities, which is an oxymoron.

Everything we have fought for in our history, they want to destroy with their lunacy called "Equality" and compassion, yet have the audacity to call reparations a step towards "human dignity"

Dignity is doing things yourself, not sitting around and banging the desk "white man needs pay me more"

sick people

Seems to a be constant excuse making and "being a victim" thought process, that's for sure.

Imagine the theft and corruption with that circus. Talk about the natives running rampant.

Look at suno just for a glimpse of what a shite show that would be.
In the end they’ll always double down, lie, and blame others instead of looking in the mirror.

Nothing could harm race relations more than reparations.
Certain people want that to happen. Keep getting stuff for free or that shouldn't be given at all.

I am all for reparations since according to my 23andme profile I have more African America DNA (0.1%) than Elizabeth Warren has Native American DNA (0.09%)

I'm black, bitches, and I approve this message

Pay the money and be done with this foolishness. Within six months 80% of the monies paid will be in the hands of those who know how to manage monies.

Since the majority of entitlements are mean/income/asset tested I would imagine ineligibility for same will result and said monies could be used to pay off the reparations cost.

This will become one of the biggest, you asked for it, got it, now deal with the coldest of realities.

Government studies are the exact opposite of “addressing things head-on.”

We’ll waste a shite-ton of money on it, and since it’d be initiated by the dimocratix, we all know exactly what it’d say.

Sen. Cory Booker on Monday introduced a bill that would study the possibility


You guys are missing the point. Cory Booker is having a big problem raising money. It works like this:

Acme Research donates $1M to the Cory Booker for President campaign.
Booker backs off reparations and just wants 'a study.'
Congress agrees so they won't seem racist.
Acme Research gets the govt contracts for $5M to do the study.

End result: No reparations so no political fallout, Acme gets money, Cory gets money.

“Implicit racial bias”. If it’s implicit it means people don’t know they have it. How do you correct a problem you don’t know you have?
