Maybe Native Americans (and one particular former Native American) should get in on this.

Where do the freebie promises end?

Could people who had relatives who fought for the Union in the Civil War be exempt from this farce? My wife’s great GrandFather fought in three major battles and wounded twice.

Somehow, the abject stupidity just keeps rolling along!

Maybe the free shit crowd can figure out how to organize so we get all their wet dream hallucinations at one time.

And what about the blacks who fought for the north? Do they get paid, or do they have to pay? And to whom would they pay? Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Unlike with slavery, there are still people alive today who were victimized by Jim Crow laws passed by Democrats. I say all Dems should pay reparations. Doesn't make any sense, you say? Well, neither does this or any of the other reparation proposals.

The majority of black people who want reparations are already getting a check courtesy of the American taxpayers.

NJ is going full retard. They’re currently pushing for drivers licenses for illegal aliens.

My ancestors, from either side of the family, didn't arrive until after 1880 and lived in the north, therefore we are exempt.

It is things like this and the cost of living in New Jersey that made me move out twenty years ago. If they keep this up who is going to be left to pay the taxes to fund this.
Several very wealthy people have left New Jersey because of the taxes the rest of the population is not far behind.

I'm all for it.

Take the price of the 40 acres back then (it was about sixty bucks) and add the average mule ($12). Adjust for inflation (three grand) and cut them a check.

For that check, end all affirmative action, quotas, diversity, and legal standing, etc... Permanently.

I was forced to live in New Jersey for two years. Can I get any reparation for that time in hell?

Reparations really are the last Hail Mary attempt at keeping African Americans on the Democratic plantation.

For decades, the Democrats have promised blacks the moon and the stars and delivered almost nothing. Very little in the way of economic gains and nothing else except maintenance of a system of government-mandated discrimination known as affirmative action that exemplifies the bigotry of low expectations. Furthermore, every major city under Democratic rule is on its way to third world status.

Along comes President Donald Trump delivering the strongest economy in a generation - one that lifts every boat, including the ones that blacks and latinos are riding in. Unemployment at all-time lows for blacks. Income gains across the board. Home ownership rates going up.

In 3 years, Trump has begun to deliver what Democrats always promised but never even really tried to deliver. The Democrats redistributed trillions of dollars over the decades, but very little of it improved the lives of minority Americans, unless they happened to be members of a labor union.

Democrats won 89% of the black vote in 2016 and 90% in the 2018 midterms. Impressive sounding, but the Democrats are now running scared because they know that it won't take very many blacks switching to the Republican party for 2020 and all future elections to turn into landslides for the GOP. If Trump gets 15% of the black vote, that would be historic and almost certainly cement a victory for the incumbent president.

So the Democrats have a three-prong strategy. First, try like hell to establish Trump as a racist or white nationalist in the minds of the black community. Second, promise reparations as another bribe to blacks. Third, import new residents from across the southern border as fast as possible and give them a path to citizenship in order to replace black voters that they may lose to the GOP.

Blacks are waking up and seeing that #1 isn't really true. They know Trump's history of great relations with the black community and they see they real economic gains he is delivering for them. As for #3, I believe it is starting to backfire on the Democrats because black can see the writing on the wall that the Democrats don't give a damn about them and are soon going to be a Latino-focused party. Also, it's a longer-term strategy that won't help them in time for 2020.

So it's all about #2 - Reparations. Will it work to keep enough blacks locked into the Democratic side? Time will tell - but I don't think so.

I still don't understand this....People who never owned slaves are going to pay money to people who never were slaves.

Not trying to be insensitive. What am I missing here?

Insensitive? Please. You're not missing anything. Anyone who vouches for or believes in reparations for blacks is a retard. How's that for insensitive?
