who has to pay reparations anyway

do Asians or Hispanics who weren't in this country when slavery existed have to pay reparations?

do whites whose ancestors never owned slaves have to pay reparations?

do Native Americans whose ancestors did own slaves have to pay reparations?

you would have to trace back all the white ancestors who owned slaves

and it wasn't just whites

does Puerto Rico have to pay reparations since they don't pay federal income tax?

lt was jews, native americans, other blacks, etc..

So nobody

so the American people as a whole?

Because that went to the debt

are you going to have black taxpayers pay their own reparations?

Also, what happens when that doesn't fix the problems blacks have, and they decide that we just didn't give them enough?

Just keep doing it until we run out of money?

lf the government suddenly decided to write a 1 million dollar check to every black person in the US, in 10 years not only would all that money be spent on material things, they would come around and say it wasn't enough and we'd be back to square one.

They were right then too

Earth is round, same mentality as the people who denied flat Earth in 1880

where are you going to get the money?

From ypipo and the rich

37 million blacks in this country

how much do you want to pay to each black person

Set up a system that systematically gives them advantages in welfare, schooling and college admission

Oh, wait

This is just further proof that you want equity and not equality

Nice copy/pasting

the barrage of questions inevitably follows because they're legitimate questions

Nobody deserves money for past "wrongdoings"

I do not support reparations for any group

Unless payable by those responsible

because it's irrational

I will not give a dime to any reparation because I have done nothing wrong

@Fred the Fish do black people in power (most likely democrats) empower common black people? If you say yes that’ll show me how irrational you are

Against my will

lt is irrational in the same way that German citizens were forced to pay reperations for the Holocaust

Are you saying the bank bailout was good and justified?

Because you just did say that

what about all those who were affected by the Holodomor

or any other genocide

?

What

"Broach the topic of the earth being flat today and a barrage of questions inevitably follows: Why does everyone agree the earth isn't flat? Why could you measure the circumference of the earth 2000 years ago in Ancient Greece? Why can you circumnavigate the globe?"
