why do they think, they deserve this..???

[Old_Me]

i am totally against this sort of thing. i see NO valid reason, or reasoning for it.

"we" did not do this, that is, "we Americans that had NO ancestors that were involved in this"

to pay this BS to me is just not warranted.

if anything at all..??

pursue the families that HAD ancestors involved in this.......but then too......go after the tribal chiefs that actually SOLD thier people..!!!!

This is an asinine ideal, why should anybody now pay for mistakes that happened over a 100 years or more ago. It just this current climate going on now, everything is racist……and our current administration isn’t helping it by pushing this insane agenda. I think everyone can agree slavery was a terrible thing, but it’s part of this countries history and can’t be taken back, but how can paying people money now is going to change anything, it can’t, people just need to move on and live as equal, which we all are.

and the thing too is, how does anyone prove beyond a reasonable doubt, they are descendants of slaves???

CA was (or still is) doing this BS as well, putting CA deeper into debt......can anyone say "higher taxes", no matter where you live and if this is done in other states.???

you know...

for that matter...Jews all over the world., ought to sue Germany, for the atrocities they endured during the wars.....

i don't see that happening, any time too soon....

American, the land of......... "we pay you for your suffering, even though, we had nothing to do with it"...

Since it was the democrats that owned the slaves, then only democrats should have to pay reparations.

I think it's a marvelous idea, and while we are at it all you Norman bastards sail back to bleeping France.
Buying votes with your tax $$$.

Just scream I’m Black. If the Congress gets wholly involved and federal legislation comes down the pike it a done deal. Screw that BS sht of giving people money. Get off your ass and work. The Federal Government has just now come out with a new housing project with a fancy name; in the state of Oklahoma. It’s nothing but putting people into low income housing- turns into rental properties, low payments, drug/ gangs get involved; remember the 60s/70s, high rises being built. What a friggin mess. LBJ, the great society
A joke

Thats not so bad. Czarina Mills of ME wants to build, at taxpayers' expense' Illegal Aliens that don't work, will never work, and will complain that the housing isn't cultural enough. At least it sounds like yours are citizens.
I can't believe I'm defending it .

If anyone deserves reparations, it would be the Indians. They are still being screwed over every day.
