Come on, California. Ah is broke. Send them checks.Sacramento Democratic Mayor Darrell Steinberg was among those who spoke Saturday, declaring his wholehearted support for reparations.
"If government should stand for anything, it should stand for investing in communities and people who have been the victims of discrimination and disenfranchisement for far too long," he said, apologizing for the city of Sacramento's historic discrimination against Black people.
One proposal floated Friday was to give every Black citizen in the state a $360,000 check, which could cost the state government as much as $640 billion. There are approximately 1.8 million African-Americans living in California.
"If California can admit its sins and change the narrative, then there is a way forward for states and cities across the nation," said California Secretary of State Shirley Weber, who authored the bill creating the task force.
Comment:
Basically, this is another greedy corrupt Democrat Giant Looting Spree.
This will not solve any problems.
It will only make the Democratic Party's hate and racism problem even worse.
They will never be satisfied.
They will demand more.
It will cause inflation.
It will cause racial grievance.
It will cause racial divide.
It will drive even more of California's Taxpayers out of the state.
They are destroying their own tax base.
It will bankrupt government.
Every CA politician who votes for it is risking political suicide.
But on the bright side it will be fun watching the idiot Psychocrats self-destruct.
