Not to stir up shit but I've always wonderd why say and American Polak should have to contribute to such a thing.

I mean Poland historically has never been any were near sub Saharan Africa, and i don't think anybody would suggest that Poland had a easy time in recent history.

If I was a journalist I would be asking these question of the supporters of such a thing. (I'm using Poland as an example but lots of (non Euro) countries also fit this)

No one alive in the US has owned slaves in the sense of the reparation bullshit.

They can all fuck off and die.

I am Irish.
My ancestors were enslaved, lived lives of indentured servitude and were heavily discriminated against at one point in American history.

Reparation is the idea of making those guilty for evil acts pay for them by giving the victims monetary compensation.

So we should see the reparations paid for slavery paid in the currency issued by the Confederate States of America.

So basically the sponsors of this bill are saying that 154 years after slavery ended, black people are still too simple and/or lazy to make it on their own?

That seems rather racist to me.

How come nobody else points this out?

The DNC was the party of slavery in the South.  The DNC engaged in civil war to keep their slaves.  The DNC is the party of the KKK and the Jim Crow Laws.  The DNC resisted the Civil Rights Act.

If reparations are to be paid, they should be paid by the Democratic National Party.

Naw man, ethnically cleansing a continent by yeeting its stone age inhabitants into concentration camps is morally permissible, as long as you don’t use them as a captive labor force.

But seriously, the left coast chattering class already treats that as just as evil as slavery.

1st let's deduct all of the money spent on all forms of welfare, affirmative action, grants, etc. Then deduct loss from theft, larceny, property destruction,  etc. All medical costs from associated shootings, assaults, and other violent mayhem.
The cost of loss to business productivity following violence and destruction. Let's start there.

Everything about slavery reparations stinks of the Democrats buying votes. The dems know this won't fly. It's not that they wouldn't spend money at taxpayer's and the country's expense, they're only too willing to spend money to buy votes.

Once we subtract  room and board, medical care, transportation from Africa to America, education, and childcare from those reparations they owe us a shit ton of money.

51 trillion is 155 grand for every single American if distributed evenly.

This is what net worth by race looks like now.



Give out trillions in reparations and in a matter of weeks or months,  the chart won't show any meaningful improvement in the average net worth of blacks,
but that money will show up in the net worth of whites and asians.

If you're broke ass poor,  it's because of a combination of your work and spending habits.  Thrown money at them won't change them. They'll just spend it on useless shit
and end up right back where they started.   That money will soon line the pockets of the people who sell them what they didn't need.

Democrats are so fucking stupid, they'll never get this.

See, I'm all for reparations. They were promised them after the civil war and it was never delivered.

Therefore, anyone who wants reparations should receive 40 acres, a mule, and a one way plane ticket.

Here's the catch, those 40 acres and your mule is in Sub Saharan Africa and you're more than fucking welcome to go claim it.

I bet there will be few takers.

My ancestors were not in the United States in 1865.

I require reparations for not having the benefits of ancestors who profited from slavery.

Real simple to pay it - just confiscate the 401k’s of every white male.  Of course if you do that, you will probably generate a bit of hate.  I would suspect there would be some illegal retribution happen afterwards.
