It's a ignorant questions.
Can't have a serious discussion with someone who can't/wont understand the topic.
You obviously can't comprehend what reparations are about so please post your ignorance to someone else.

So that's a no?On my offer!
In other words, you don't like the answer so won't. What an ignorant biatch you are. Must be poor, wanting free shit from Whitey.
Fuck. I will pay for the whole thing. No way are you going to see Wheezy growing her own crops behind a mule.

The point being is that you and your ilk always default to this part of American history as some sort of half assed attempt to justify slavery and/or negate civil rights moves (past & present), much less the discussion of slavery....and you fail every time, because when challenged you change the subject real fast.
It's like this, genius....reparations actually was tried for a brief time just before and after the end of the Civil War...only to be thwarted by the bitter Southern losers (see the rise of the KKK). Do your homework.
As for my "solution", here's what I wrote earlier: https://www.justplainpolitics.com/s...A-CASE-FOR-REPARATIONS!&p=3117406#post3117406

You're a bigot AND a liar Jack....No one on this thread has declared what you suggest....and I defy you to link to where they did. Bottom line is that your sheet wearing behind (metaphorically speaking) is getting handed to you and you don't like it....so much so is that you've deteriorated to using clinical terms regarding black Americans. Funny that, as I have yet to see you refer to yourself and your brethren as Caucasian Americans. Carry on.
"If, by some quirk of Fate and God, reparations did pass through Congress, ONLY A TINY FRACTION of the American black population would be entitled to receipt. This is because (a) lineage to a slave family or person would have to be firmly established (b) a company or corporate records would have to exist to establish ownership (c) said company or corporation would have to exist to this day."
I would think most Blacks in America could trace Family members as 'Slaves', not many paid to come here as Pioneers or Colonists.
I would also think 'Ownership' would be by Plantation Owners. (Thomas Jefferson being a prominent slave owner) Not so much 'Corporations'.
Having a Discussion about how to solve 'Inequality', would seem more 'American', than 'Reparations', which just seems to be more a "Send me a Check" by our African friends.
Most Americans refer to themselves as 'Americans'. While I notice a segment of the Population refers to themselves as 'African-Americans', as though they just arrived here and still retain their original heritage. For those that feel 'African', I could support a One Way ticket back to the 'Motherland'.
I noticed you used 'black Americans', I applaud you for that.

You're a lying SOS who doesn't have the intellectual courage to own up to losing a point in a discussion. Let me empty your gas bag, bunky…..for years fools like you argued that the slavery issue in the Civil War was an after thought, claiming that the slaves didn't really contribute much to the Confederate states economy (
I know, dear reader....it boogles the mind that these fools actually believe their revisionist bilge can pass for historical fact....so much more to pity them), and that some Northern states participated in the slave trade. So in effect, you contradict your own argument as to the main reasons for the Civil War (the "war of aggression" as die hard Confederacy lovers call it). or why your great grand pappy fought in it. Oh, and for your education...your grand pappy had gov't compensation/assistance as a vet...so reparations weren't needed....for him or for your dumb ass. https://www.essentialcivilwarcurriculum.com/civil-war-pensions.htmlYou're a lying SOS who doesn't have the intellectual courage to own up to losing a point in a discussion.

RB60 makes an interesting point. Should the ex-slaves pay the Northern White People that set them free?

True enough but YOU made the stupid comparison of reparations and welfare...making the false assumption that all black folk who would receive reparations (if granted by Congress and systematically worked out and distributed) are on welfare....insinuating that the majority of black Americans are on welfare.
Here's your homework assignment: Look into the reparations for Japanese Americans put into internment camps during WWII. Or those given to certain Native American tribes. get back to me when you're up to speed.

Do your own homework ...
The black population: At 41.6 percent, blacks were more likely to participate in government assistance programs in an average month.
o The black participation rate was followed by Hispanics at 36.4 percent, Asians or Pacific
Islanders at 17.8 percent, and non-Hispanic whites at 13.2 percent.

Seriously? Did I deny the effects of nearly 400 years of systemic racism born of nearly 2 centuries of slavery? Nope. I'm merely pointing out a FACT as to how things work in our current state of society and government. Hell, the OP indirectly concurs with me by acknowledging alternatives to the original monetary/land/animal offering.
Read what I put to the bigoted cabal that regularly show up when black folk point to the congenital racism and bigotry in the country, and how it's failed on it's promises historically. Note Japanese got theirs relatively easy because of direct line of cause and effect and relatively a small group of people. Native Americans despite documents, treaties, etc., are a hit and miss, and we (black folk) aren't getting squat because, let's face it, you had hatred against people who were considered less than human breeding on this land before it became a country. That being said, I wager (IMHO) that what I previously stated is about the only way it's going to happen....if it happens at all. But keep the faith, baby!

Tell that the black folk who got screwed in the recent Wall St. related debacles by banks using predatory loan tactics. Or folks that get red lined in the real estate market. Hell, half the clowns who got GI bill gifts never saw combat or left the main land! You're not in charge of the banks or federal reserve or congress...hell, you don't even have a grasp of social history.
It would be interesting if the financial equivalent of 40 acres & a mule were awarded to black folk when they could prove in court that racism and/or bigotry was the root cause in whatever case was brought before the bench. Bet you'd bitch about that too!

For your education: https://atlantablackstar.com/2013/08/26/17-major-companies-never-knew-benefited-slavery/
So if I trace my family lineage to a former slave, and the records showed who bought and sold that person(s) ,,,,gee, ever notice what good little note takers Nazi's and racist slavers were?,,,,,,and reparations passes Congress, then said company/corporation/business pays up. Got that, bunky?

1. You declared that there are those on this thread who either claim or imply or insinuated that America was the only place on Earth that had slavery. I called you out to show the readers who said that and where via a link or a given post number. You can't....that makes YOU A LIAR AND AN INTELLECTUAL COWARD.
2. I called you out for your antiquated, dated and clinical term for black Americans...which came only after getting your pseudo-intellectual butt handed to you in a discussion. You did this out of frustration of a loser, then double down with some bigoted babbling found in the screeds of Limbaugh and Duke and the like.
Keep it up, bunky. You're just supporting my points.

Oh jeez, another David Duke wanna be with delusions of intellectualism.
YOU made the statements, genius...the burden of proof is on YOU!
what's this "more likely" BS, toodles. If you got the stats, you have the raw numbers. Let's see the sources of your material....whom is stating what and when. Surely you learned that much in jr. high. I'll wait.
