LOL. It's official now. Lefties believe that we should add another 12 trillion dollars onto the national debt for slave reparations. This is on top of all the coronavirus stimuluses but I don't know if the 12 trillion dollars in slave reparations is supposed to be before or after the 93 trillion dollars fighting mother nature. And lefties want to criticize Trump's adding to the national debt? Democrats are the party of fiscal responsibility? Will Biden and Harris stand up and call this proposal Hooey or will they say let's talk about it?
US economist proposes $12 trillion in slavery reparations to eliminate black-white wealth gap
How about the black athletes pay reparations for the slave labor that has made them billions over the last 50 years or so?

How about all the black people in the US pay all the descendants of all the white people killed in the civil war 15 trillion dollars for ending slavery?
Sure, as soon as we pay Native Americans for all the acreage we took without just compensation.

It should be noted that it was impeached Democrat President Andrew Johnson that vetoed the reparations that the Republican-controlled Congress enacted three months before the Civil War ended. Special Field Order No. 15 was put together by Republican House Representative Thaddeus Stevens, which would have distributed ~400,000 acres of land to the recently freed slaves. The land had been confiscated from Democrat plantation owners in North and South Carolina, Georgia, and northern Florida. However, Democrat President Johnson wanted to defend and protect his fellow Confederate traitors, so he rescinded Special Field Order No. 15 and vetoed all forthcoming reparation bills.
I knew you were capable of really stupid comments, but you’ve outdone yourself with this one. You pushed your head waaaay up there this time.How about all the black people in the US pay all the descendants of all the white people killed in the civil war 15 trillion dollars for ending slavery?
Elaborate.How about the black athletes pay reparations for the slave labor that has made them billions over the last 50 years or so?

Wow. I did not know that. So, Democrats nixed paying reparations when they had the chance. Sounds like it is on them then. They are either going to have to live with that decision or pay the 12 trillion out of the DNC's funds.
"Democrats," MR says, based on one thing one dude said.
According to MR, the appropriate response to this picture is "LOL. It's official now. Trumpists are nazis."
:roll:
(See what I'm doing there? You missed it the first time. I'm hoping second's the charm)
Elaborate.
So, you are saying that you refuse to honor the agreements presidents have made?
Guilt by association? Doesn’t work that way.Nike = child and slave labor.
Ecko = child and slave labor.
And don't get me started on gold and gemstone branding, and other jewelry.
I guess I could include rappers into this as well?
Guilt by association? Doesn’t work that way.
Your finger should be pointed at the parent companies that subcontract to the sleazes running 3rd world sweat shops. That is where the guilt/blame belongs.
Oh, I get it now. You’re proposing a ridiculous claim to counter another ridiculous claim instead defeating the first ridiculous claim with facts and logic.Doesn't matter. Those folks profited and are continuing to profit off slave labor. They owe them reparations, yes?
I mean, if I owe reparations for something I'm supposedly benefiting from in my rather meager existance that happened long before I was born...
Wouldn't logic dictate that people CURRENTLY benefiting from current existing slavery to the tune of it making them fantastically wealthy...also owe reparations?
Goose, gander?
Oh, I get it now. You’re proposing a ridiculous claim to counter another ridiculous claim instead defeating the first ridiculous claim with facts and logic.
To be clear, both are crap.
African Americans today are not entitled to reparations for the evil acts of any of our ancestors, period. There are other reasonable and sane solutions to fix systemic racism and unequal treatment of minorities.
And there are already laws in place to penalize companies that allow 3rd world sweatshops to produce their products. The government just has to decide to actually enforce them.
