Biden advisor says White House will act on Reparations for Blacks without congress. A senior advisor to Joe Biden said the White House will act without congress to develop proposals for reparations, or direct payments to African Americans. Cedrick Richmond said: "We have to start breaking down systemic racism and barriers that have held people of color back and especially African Americans." " If you start talking about free college tuition to [historically black colleges and universities] and you start talking about free community college in Title 1 and all those things, I think you are well on your way," he said. https://www.theepochtimes.com/senio...-on-reparations-without-congress_3715713.html Well, we see here that the need for government to control and subsidize the lives of blacks is rising to a new level. Just curious in hearing if any of the Leftists here are in support of your tax paying funds going to reparations for Blacks.
There is no such thing as an African-American. Most blacks in the United States have never stepped foot on the African continent. You are an American. Or should we start calling everyone in the United States an "Insert Ancestry Here"-American...
As I said in another one of these threads why stop with black and brown people? Why not make everybody millionaires? It could be done with a few clicks on the keyboard - think about the benefit to the Democrat party.
I’d love to hear this RACIST proposal. If Biden wants to create some more division, stealing from white people and giving their money to black people is the perfect way to create more racists. BLUE cities are already getting bailed out with the stimulus. They purposely allowed downtowns to burn and the rest of us are going to pay for their idiocy.
I would say no to reparations for slavery ... BUT - and this is a big issue - Black Americans were denied access to the Homestead Act and the GI Bill - the two biggest government give-aways for generational wealth building in US history - so there is real inequality that needs to be addressed on those issues.
They aren’t denied anymore - sounds like reparations are already done. How long ago are you talking about?
How is he going to do this? Congress controls the purse strings. Not the President. Where's he going to get the money from?
LoL, I grew up dirt poor, paid for college myself and am worth several million now. It turns out you don't need an inheritance, an IQ above 120 will suffice. It is called impulse control and it is closely tied to IQ. Stupid people will never save a dime. The sad part about this is that they can establish this at the toddler age and it perfectly predicts the child's trajectory through life. https://www.livescience.com/15821-cookie-test-control.html No amount of giveaways, no amount of schooling will ever overturn hardwired biology. This is why America is doomed. The people with impulse control are swiftly becoming a minority. I understand that there will be a whole scale looting of people like me in the near future..... they did it in Greece a few years ago. It is going to be horse race to see if I can reach retirement age and get my nest egg before the federal government gets a chance to loot it. One thing is for sure, our government is an extremely low impulse control entity.
