Since we're talking about reparations again, here's a post explaining why it wouldn't work.
And let's not forget that families who could afford slaves were a minority. Descendants of slave owners must be quite rare.But who gets the money? Lots of white people have taken those ancestry dna tests and come back with a few % points of black ancestry. Wouldn't they qualify as well? And if you think there is a racial divide now, just wait until the poor white folks see blacks getting a payout. Especially when it seems like a ransom to keep them from burning the place down.
And what about the Native Americans? Those are the people we really fucked over. How much are we going to have to pay them? And which group will be after that? The Jews could make us pay for not allowing them to immigrate and leaving them to face the gas chambers. The Japanese for the internment camps? Tax funds don't exist solely to pay for class action lawsuits. This sounds like an incredibly stupid plan to what -- own the libs?
