Okay it’s probably a hundred and fifty years plus late since Lincoln’s assignation took place and all that was easily pushed into the toilet by the Democratic Party that he was promoting?

How would it be delved out today?

The lazy, shiftless, slaves decedents shouldn’t receive the same monitory restitution as the hard worker that’s the American standard.

You must prove your case that you were worthy of restitution those of whom were not first generation slaves which are all 309 years dead now.

And those who joined the Indian tribes who originally purchased them and took them in must also be exempted correct?

In the end it might be a small pool who get the deserved gravy but blacks from Africa or Hattie need to be on the deciding commission.

Let’s settle the dispute once and for all!

Once done the civil acts right gets tossed in the gutter and all ACLU/SPLC members get the date with disembowelment.

Affirmative action and quotas are reparations.

If they're not, what are they and why are we doing them?

I think we're done here.

I beg to disagree.

Those who are worthy deserve it. A small portion are worthy.

If they are benefited by reparations for due service then it’s an end to it.

The rest can take it up with those of whom were entitled.

22 trillion is not enough?

quote:

As ambitious government programs go, it’s hard to top the “Great Society,” which recently marked its 50th anniversary. President Lyndon Johnson, after all, vowed “to give every citizen an escape from the crushing weight of poverty.”

That’s a tall order. Five decades, nearly $22 trillion and roughly 80 welfare programs later, it’s fair to ask how we’re doing. The short answer? Not well.

The correct way to calculate reparations is to compare what would have happened to the average black person if their ancestors had stayed in Africa unmolested by whites and there was never a slave trade, vs. their current state of economic prosperity in America.

Because if the people who were brought to America as slaves, and then their descendants, are doing much worse than if they'd had never brought over, then that's the amount of reparations. How much they lost is all the wealth they would have accumulated if they had never been taken from Africa, less the the wealth they accumulated in America.

You know what the problem is, right? A credible reparations comparison produces a negative number.

The slave descendants would owe money.

Not following what you were saying here? Lincoln was a Republican.

That’s a very interesting proposition and a valued point of discussion to be examined in probably a separate discussion.

We have to limit the deserved slave descendant.

A) One who didn’t run away from lawful obligations.

B) One who prospered and provided value.

C) One who was directly purchased by Caucasian citizens of the Colony.

The direct descendent of the aforementioned deserve reparations.

The criteria is set and absolutely African and Haitian Nationals need to be chaired on the selecting committee.

If you think “African Americans,” I’m sure many hate the term, don’t have a greater advantage than any other American in 2021.

You’re insane. Watch a commercial. Any one that’s not local. The ratio is set.

All Democrats should pay non-Democrats reparations for them being the #1 institution of racism in the world’s least racist country from their founding through today. They love higher taxes so they shouldn’t mind one bit.
