If Reparations are ever Paid to Blacks for being Descendents of Slaves, Can we be Sure that none of the Payments Will Ever go to . . .

LIfe is better then when Biden was president
No. One reason Independents (45%) are the largest voting block is because they, like me, believe both major parties are better at serving themselves than serving the interests of Americans.

While I have no problem with taxing those who can most afford it, I have a huuuuge frickin' problem on how those taxes are spent by the two major parties.

Republicans piss on our backs and tell us "Trickle down theory. Be patient." then they fill their pockets with mammon.

Democrats throw the money into the wind and say "Free College! Reparations!" then they print more money to make up for the loss.

IMHO, American voters should hold our leaders to a higher standard.
 
We are the laughing stock of the world

We would be better off if Kamala was President.
Trump would be in jail
Carmella Harris is the laughing stock of the world.

We are better off that she’s drunk, playing with Venn diagrams somewhere and not being a public embarrassment.
 
Can you validate that claim?
No because Trump is hiding it behind a veil of secrecy. Even the Republicans in Congress are complaining about the secrecy.

Why not more transparency on who is getting paid, how much and for what?

Republican and Democrat voters agree in nearly equal numbers they oppose President Donald Trump’s anti-weaponization fund in a new poll that marks a rare bipartisan consensus—as Republicans in Washington have also revolted against the so-called “slush fund.”

No one has been paid anything

Just be sure to let us know when somebody gets paid something.
 
Rapists, murderers, cop assaulters, or child molesters?



Senator Van Hollen is in full tantrum mode about supposed possible payments to a child molester - from a fund that has yet to pay a single penny to anyone, nor even had board members appointed.

So, for those who favor reparations, how will you make sure that they don't go to criminals?

Or should even criminals get the reparations under some racial theory?

Senator Van Hollen is an embarrassment, an attention whore, a media slut who will say or do anything to get publicity. He has no soul. No standards. He doesn't care about America or his constituents. He cares only about himself.
 
So you propose that a black man, wrongly convicted of a crime based on an eyewitness identification from a white person who has been heard to say "they all look alike to me," should now be denied reparations when he is clearly one of the people who has suffered the worst from the legacy of slavery?
What black man?
Sorry Unkotare. I don't have the time to give you a full explanation of how the English language works.
Pardon me for jumping in, but I think the question is for a factual case and not just a hypothetical.

Example, if a white woman is beaten, raped, and tortured by a black man, should that black man receive reparations? Shouldn't the money be given to his victim?

Hypotheticals are fine, but don't work in court...and I'm not even a lawyer.
 
Correct. It's simply a very unpopular proposal by Trump to put more money in both is pocket and the pockets of his friends.

You know, like him suing the IRS and telling to IRS to pay him.
Trump was running the IRS at the time

Jump away! Unlike a court, in which there are rigid rules for who speaks and when, we are all free to jump in anytime.

So are you interpretting Unkotare's question to be a request for a specific name of a black criminal in order for him to be able to answer whether the criminal should get reparations?

Correct.

As it is, I'm against giving money to individuals and prefer that such money be used for the betterment of society such as better schools in poor areas, encouraging businesses to relocate to underemployed areas, low cost college classes online at libraries, etc.

How will he spend the money in prison?

So how come when we spend more on education test scores drop? We spend billions on the homeless and they increase. Subsidizing college costs increased tuition and we are graduating useless idiots who think socialism is good idea.
As long as democrats and unions control public schools they will never get better. Only teachers will make more money.

When you say individuals what you mean is the private sector which will by its nature spend money on things we need.
