What, exactly, do you want me to explain? With entitlements paying for a variety of necessities the black person can spend less time trying to acquire such items and more time on things like getting themselves and their children educations. From there they can get jobs. Hopefully they will aspire to improve their lives.how so? explain how they will each become wealthy?
I could swear, white men died to free said slaves! Wasn't freedom the ultimate point of the effort? How much do you supposed it cost the US to do the civil war? millions upon millions, life after life?
No one is obligated nor even associated with “laying down a base” of money with the “idea” that it will jump start a promising future.Yes they can. They can give someone an economic base upon which to improve their lives.
Well, at least your debate skills are consistent.
Total bullshit. If not for the negroes we would have done it ourselves. Plus, the negroes predominately worked in agriculture. You are pimping a fake narrative, you tool.What your ancestors did does transfer to the here and now. I know you'd rather not think of that, but it's true. The USA wouldn't enjoy the wealth and status it enjoys if it hadn't been for the 250 years of free labor and 100 years of Jim Crow it imposed on African-Americans. We can't pretend slavery and Jim Crow didn't happen.
Meaning?He got checked in 1968.
I was born, raised, and continue to reside in the deep south at age 52. I do not think I understand what you are saying friend. Please, elaborate.Although I see both sides of this it's a problem that should have been foreseen and solved decades ago.
If you don't know what I'm talking about you've never lived in the south or you don't really take a look around because there are landowners who inherited their property which is bigger than some whole black neighborhoods I've been in.
Ask George Bush.
He could have been a plumber but he'd still have all that land .
You are failing to acknowledge all the compensation the blacks have already received.Reparations amount to African-Americans being compensated for the 250 years of enslavement and the 100 years of Jim Crow they were subjected to. Speaking of looting, burning and murdering, have you ever read about the Tulsa or Rosewood massacres? Or any of the race riots carried out against African-Americans in the late 19th and early 20th centuries?
Well that would be a fact so the ignoring is typicalYou are failing to acknowledge all the compensation the blacks have already received.
For...?You are failing to acknowledge all the compensation the blacks have already received.
Flat "no" to reparations is just common sense.Good to see that you and I are on the same page on this one, White Man!
I am not saying that. I was saying that if the blacks fully and wisely utilized the many government programs they have today (as well as poor folks of any ethnicity), they they could use that to build their own "generational wealth". Note, this was said in the context of replying to some brainless leftist.No one is obligated nor even associated with “laying down a base” of money with the “idea” that it will jump start a promising future.
Truth hurts doesn't it? Besides looking for a free ride at the expense of others and putting your faith in the riches of this world is for fools.
Slavery came with us from Europe. Cheap labor but not free. People had to be conditioned (or groomed as they say now), to accept the institution of slavery in parts of the Union, they had to see the slaves as somewhat less than human. That conditioning is proving hard to get rid of.The USA wouldn't enjoy the wealth and status it enjoys if it hadn't been for the 250 years of free labor and 100 years of Jim Crow it imposed on African-Americans.
how so? explain how they will each become wealthy?

For having their feelings hurt, apparently.For...?
Got it and thanksI am not saying that.

Actually slavery came from Islam in Africa. They were the source of slavery, the metaphorical crack dealer or prostitute on the corner tempting the rest of the world with their goods.Slavery came with us from Europe. Cheap labor but not free. People had to be conditioned (or groomed as they say now), to accept the institution of slavery in parts of the Union, they had to see the slaves as somewhat less than human. That conditioning is proving hard to get rid of.
Swear all you want. White men died trying to keep the entire race enslaved in perpetuity to. Freedom to starve (after 1877)!
Martin Luther King Jr said that "we're coming to get out check!"
That is straight up truth. Slaves were not free. You have to buy them. You kept them fed, housed, and healthy too. Otherwise, you would be pissing your money away and losing productivity on the plantation. It was primarily the ones that harmed, or tried to harm, others that caught the lashings. So, you paid for them. They you paid for their upkeep.Slavery came with us from Europe. Cheap labor but not free.

so the sacrifice of others wasn't enough to reach the outcome reparation of freedom! Not to be whipped ever again. To get a job, to vote, all those were received by each and every slave.Swear all you want. White men died trying to keep the entire race enslaved in perpetuity to. Freedom to starve (after 1877)!
yeah, post that link,Martin Luther King Jr said that "we're coming to get out check!"
