Yes, this is a really good idea. Really good, and so fair to all of us who will pick up the tab. Only thing is, none of my forbears were in this country during the years of slavery, so do I get to keep any money the government needs to make me pay???? Just asking’.

I'm Scottish, Irish and Norwegian. Do the descendants of the Vikings owe me reparations? Norway is oil rich so why not?

Maybe payout to the survivors of the Native American genocide before the imported slaves of the cabal.

On a real note, does this open up payments to the children we are rescuing? Will there be compensation for the victims of human trafficking in the present tense, and worldwide? Or will the plan just make life better for all of us?

Hmm.................doesn't seem reasonable!!

One time while passing through Alabama in mid August, I stopped at a grocery store. Right in front of me, a big fat 300 lb. African American women and her fat mom I guess, parked her Escalade at such an angle and so close, it blocked the door of elderly lady in the passenger side of the car in the next space. She couldn't open her door. I watched as Big Mama got out and looked at her park job and just walked off. After getting out and helping them back their car out (they had a hell of a time) and re-park in another spot, I casually walked over to the Escalade and I let all of the air out of 3 tires and took the tire valves from stem, did I mention it was a hot summer day?. Hmm...........now that seems reasonable!! Reparations for all!!

How many of today’s black Americans can trace their baby daddy heritage back to an actual slave? Not very damn many is my guess. How many white people (who actually have to pay for this bullshit) can trace their roots back to a genuine owner of slaves? Not very damn many is my guess.

Black Americans are 10 times more likely to have descended from a white slave owner (ie slave rape) than white Americans are.

Maybe maybe blacks should be paying themselves for the guilt of their ancestors.

One-time cash payment...yeah, sure, right.

I really try not to over use this but sometimes its just 100% appropriate.

H?NK H?NK‼️‼️‼️

Well, this is basically wining the lottery ...

And what happens when people win the lottery and find themselves full of sweet crisp cash?

Lives destroyed

Reparations ... an immensely dumb idea. The ultimate victim mentality card.

My family fought FOR America in the American Revolution, the War of 1812, and fought to free the slaves. (Ft. Lauderdale is named after a great-great-Uncle of mine.) We fought the King's Royal dipshits and kicked them out of our countryand out of our waters not once but twice, we bombarded the shit out of the Barbary Pirates and ended the majority of the slave trade with them, we ended Piracy in the Caribbean, we set Devil Dogs on the Huns of WWI, we freed the Jews from concentration camps from the Nazis, we freed the Pacific from the Little Emperor (including Manchuria, aka China), we bombed the suit out of Ho Chi Minh until our DEMOCRAT politicians colluded with the enemy, we spied on the U.S.S.R (sometimes behind enemy lines), we freed Panama from a militarized drug kingpin, we freed Kuwait from a tyrant and then freed Iraq from said tyrant, and have generally kicked the asses of those who seek to oppress us since BEFORE the U.S. was founded. Seeing as we fought to free the WHOLE WORLD, does that mean that my family and I are exempt?

Will the descendants of the blacks who OWNED slaves be paying also?

First deduct the current value of the 40 acres and mule they received.

I would like to see the average normies response to this. Would they be thrilled? Would they feel like they need to support it because they will be called racist if they don't?

And does anybody think if we spent our way into the stone age that then race relations would be good again?

Lets include the population of people who were sold like slaves to the USA during the Louisiana Purchase too.

They really are aggressively trying to create the doleist(read the Honor Harrington saga, I can guarantee that anyone who does will like it) class...

Why is no one asking them if they're against slavery, that instead of receiving money, would they agree that money be used to free modern-day slaves of human trafficking?

I identify as African American.

You laugh but with all the other insanity that's happened in the span of a short time, this horse shit could genuinely come into fruition.

I want my American Indian Payout! Reeeeeeeeee

I would like to know how they came up with the number of "descendants" and how they figure the other "calculation."

They want us divided and caught up in a race war. Can you imagine how bad it will be if a bunch of people who never owned slaves are forced to pay reparations to a bunch of people who never were slaves?

LOOL

Down the slippery slope -

What does a mixed race person who has black and white ancestors do? Claim to be black to get the gimmes but be forced to pay because there's some white in him or her?

Should women get reparations from men for historically being treated as second class (i.e., oppressed) in terms of pay and job opportunities?

What about "all the descendants" (male and female) of the discriminated-against women described above? Certainly, they were also hurt by their female ancestors historically being treated as second class (i.e., oppressed) in terms of pay and job opportunities?

How can they encumber the state so much without a vote of the people?

What about next year, though? That $300k bank account gonna be pretty low by then.

What if I’m transblack

Better payout to all the white families that fought to free them. Civil War veteran's families and underground railroad folks need their cut.

My ppl arrived just aver slavery. My husband is Apache. So why would we pay??

How about we give them all $1, and make soros pay for it.

I hope the families of the victims of Stalin’s famines get the same treatment.

They'll all be broke in 6 months. I'll likely take a fair amount of that money from. The..myself. so do.it.
