Paying reparations in America would be immoral- The reality of slavery in America versus everywhere else

[Curried Goats]

You can play it any way you want and create another ponzi scheme to make you feel better, and it might last a year. You can't bullshit the balance sheet, all you can do is destroy what little incentive is left here. Then the real shit will hit the very real fan.

Am I supposed to decipher what the fuck this means?

 

[Mac-7]

That just corrected the injustices, it didn't give restitution for them.

You dont deserve restitution

 

[the watcher]

Yes. You can pass any laws you want, and create another pyramid scheme like social security, and even give it a cute name like the Social Reckoning System ( the SRS) to redistribute earnings and property, and certainly use force of arms to administrate it. It will however stifle what little incentive there is left to be productive, and it will fail from the pyramid turning on it's side as payments to beneficiaries outstrips revenue, like SS is experiencing now. It might not even last a year as demand and entitlement applications soar. I assume you know what a ponzi scheme is. I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

Black Americans do, which would include me.

Reparations is one of many agendas designed by the Globalist Power structure to help destroy the United States or weaking it enough to be blended into a global government. We have wasted endless trillions of dollars already over many years and have damaged our infrastructure and manufacturing along with a massive increase of people receiving checks and benefits from government and or private concerns to survive. Somewhere there are other people who pay for this in some way. Domestically and in foreign concerns. As long as you know a reduced population in the world will happen as it is an agenda when they are totally empowered. 8 billion people is too much with a lot of poverty.

People who`ve watched FOX News for several decades can demand reparations, too.

A study finds that watching Fox News may leave viewers less informed than not watching news at all, raising concerns about media influence.

I do not watch FOX 12 hours a day 7 days a week. i started getting interested in this New World order in the late 1970's. And would see things happening and still was wishy washy to a degree even though I had some small belief that would increase if an event happened. It was after 9/11 and the enactment of the Patriot Act, the organizational combination of Homeland Security which is evil and the TSA which put us on the road to treating citizens like shit. And Merrick has used it against people who have done nothing that warranted it. Perhaps Republicans will return the favor someday. They hold back because of all of the hate accusations.

I’ve said this before. Why do reparations fall solely on US when African nations sold fellow Africans into slavery? Shouldn’t they pay as well?

This OP is ridcuous.


This is untrue.


If poor homeless white men were excluded from opportunity by government policy , they should sue for reparations. But they can't because white men get the most preferences and if they are poor and homeless it actually is because they made poor choices.

Ok, let’s go with this. So…do you think all white people are afforded the same opportunities as all other white people? Do you think there is some “white card” that white people can flash, then suddenly they get all their wants and desires?

Are you suggesting that, because of their skin color, that every white person has the capability to be millionaires and wealthy and such and if they don’t..it’s because of bad choices?

There are a lot of hard working white people out there who are just as bad off as any black person, and their “white privilege” didn’t help them any. The fact is, many white people are not afforded opportunities like you think they are. Some make bad choices, some are just never given an opportunity.

However, there are some reparations commissions who think that we should give every black person 5 million dollars, $1 dollar homes, and $97,000 per person guaranteed income for the next 250 years. Some want college benefits etc.

They essentially want to make every black person in America wealthy…even though not every white person in America is wealthy.

Here’s the thing..you say white people made bad choices, and that’s why they are where they are, well, there are many black people who would also have made bad choices, and end up where they are as well, so, given that, why does every black person get to be a wealthy person?

Even if every black person had been given 40 acres and mules, there are those of them who would have made bad choices and squandered their assets.

So then, how do you decide who gets to be wealthy, and get education benefits and who doesn’t?

The end result of what you are suggesting is that, had everything been done right after slavery ended, that every black person would have ended up rich and only a fraction of white people would have ended up rich? All things being equal, the percentages would have worked out the same. Only a percentage of white AND blacks would have ended up being wealthy.

Reparations aren't welfare and you can only hold them off politically so long as you maintain the political power to do so. That's going to be harder to do the more and more you're replaced demographically.

Same question as IM2…you think that every black person deserves to be wealthy, even thought not every white person is wealthy?

Then you imbeciles will be collecting money from each other--in one big circle jerk.

 

[Plagerist]

Why are you all worrying about morality NOW?

Versus when?

 

[Curried Goats]

I think every victim of injustice deserves justice. I'm black and so are many in my family and none of us deserve reparations for American injustice because none of us were victims of American injustice.

 

[Curried Goats]

You only imagine that because you're an absolute moron. Changing the demographics of this country only changes who holds politically power. We have to exercise that power before we could do anything to address the distribution of wealth in this country.

Of course you can't, because to a racist you don't think anything wrong was done to black folks to begin with.

I probably had a job before your punk ass was born.

Could it be because the horrors of slavery and Jim Crow were inflicted upon black folks in the US.
