You do have a choice of candidates...but just one Democrat at this time and after Biden is forced to stay in the basement you will still have only one Democrat choice. However there are 2 or 3 Republican choices.

Do you want things in this country to stay this way?

‘Squad’ member says $14 trillion r********ns tab could be managed with creative financing tricks
https://parler-blog.com/news-commentary/squad-member-says-14-trillion-r********ns-tab-could-be-managed-with-creative-financing-tricks/

A group of far-left Democrat lawmakers are calling for a $14 trillion payout to b***k A******ns to make them whole for the human bondage suffered by some of their ancestors and have brought forth legislation to get the ball rolling on federal r********ns.

The legality of the controversial scheme is even more dubious than the idea that it could be sold to the e*****rate as a whole but the biggest stumbling block could be the price tag, although one member of “The Squad” has suggested that it can be made to happen with a bit of creative financing.

Rep. Jamaal Bowman (R-NY) who is one of the co-sponsors of H.R. 414, titled, “Recognizing that the United States has a moral and legal obligation to provide r********ns for the ens***ement of Africans and its lasting harm on the lives of millions of Black people in the United States” is demanding the federal government be held responsible for s***ery with the remedy being throwing $14,000,000,000,000 at a concocted problem that only exists in the minds of l*****ts.

According to the Journal News, “There are about 42 million African Americans in the United States, representing 12% of our nation’s population, according to the 2020 census. That means the proposed r********ns program could deliver roughly $333,000 per person. Bowman said it could be paid over decades.”

“Who says the $14 trillion needs to be paid out in one shot?” Bowman asked.“It might be possible for it to be paid out over 5 or 10 or 20 years. You could take that $333,000 and break it up into monthly checks over X amount of time. There are creative ways to do the right thing and do what needs to be done.”

Bowman, who recently made news for illegally pulling a fire alarm and shutting down Congress, brought up some examples of large government outlays such as the C***D p******c and the 1960s-1970s “space race” when he suggests that money was simply conjured up out of thin air.

“When C***D was destroying us, we invested in the American people in a way that kept the economy afloat,” the volatile lawmaker told the outlet. “The government can invest the same way in r********ns without raising taxes on anyone.”

“Where did the money come from?” Bowman asked. “We spent it into existence.”

According to the legislation which was introduced last year: “Whereas financial r********ns must be paid by the Federal Government for an amount that respected economists have estimated totals, at minimum, $14,000,000,000,000 to eliminate the racial wealth gap that currently exists between Black and W***e A******ns.”

“Whereas scholars have estimated that the United States benefitted from 222,505,049 hours of forced labor between 1619 and the end of s***ery in 1865, which would be valued at $97,000,000,000,000 today,” the resolution reads, citing “scholars” who aren’t named but likely include the type of intellectuals and academics who have been poisoning fertile young minds with anti-American, anti-white critical race theory propaganda.

“Our country was not founded on the principle that all people are created equal. It was founded at the expense of the lives, freedoms and well-being of black people, African folks who they stole, whose ens***ement, exploitation and dehumanization were written into the Constitution,” said the bill’s chief sponsor, B*M bomb-thrower Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) when it was introduced last May.

Bush has kept up the call for the trillions of dollars to be doled out to undeserving b****s, none of who were ever s***es, and recently took to X to remind Americans that r********ns are “OWED” to black folks.

Our country owes–OWES–a debt to the descendants of ens***ed Black people, not just for s***ery, but for what followed, like Black Codes, red lining, Jim Crow, and mass incarceration. That’s why I introduced my R********ns NOW resolution. This country has an obligation. — Cori Bush (@CoriBush) January 8, 2024

In addition to Bowman and Bush, the legislation’s other co-sponsors include Reps. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Barbara Lee (D-CA), Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), Summer Lee (D-PA), Al Green (D-TX) and a half dozen others.

Bowman told the Journal News that the $14 trillion price tag could swell to $16 trillion to account for inflation by the time that it passes.

“Let’s say the investment of $16 trillion will yield $100 trillion on the back end,” he said. “It’s just like when you invest in child care. Every dollar you invest in child care yields $14 on the back end.”

"Constant lies of the Republican Party"???

You may consider yourself to be 'independent' - but that comment clearly indicates you arenot.

So which part of MAGA do you not like? Select one of the items listed on the meme and expalin what you do not like about it.

Ok. I done the math at$ 333000 each the 388,000 original s***es stolen from Africa would get 130 billion divided by 42 million would give each African American dependent 3 thousand one hundred dollars a piece doled out over ten years is three hundred and ten bucks a year for the next ten years.. Or 25 bucks a month. Might be worth it to shut them up
But I still don't think they deserve it


I'd be very reluctant to give them anything, since once you do your basically admitting they deserve something, and then it becomes a matter of haggling over the "price". Like someone said about CA talking about r********ns: "So, people who never owned s***es are suppose to pay s***ery r********ns to people who never were s***es simply because they both live in a state that never had s***ery."

Found your estimates on the number of s***es brought into North America interesting, I got about 700,000 out of 10,000,000 (7%), your down to a bit more than 3%.

That's where the focus should be. And my math is faulty, the monthly checks should only be $25.50
If any r********n is ever paid, it should be more in line with two years free tuition, in a city college. Give them a hand up instead of a handout

I was never good in math but the ten million was mentioned in the article I took my numbers from. Something like 12.5 million shipped and a couple million died in route. And I thought I remember it saying 388,000 making to North America before we outlawed any more foreign s***es. Interestingly the article also talked about some states not acknowledging the 13th amendment right away. It took Delaware until 1901 to accept it and some s***es in Kansas weren't freed until 1976., So if any of them ex-s***es are still alive, I believe they would be entitled to r********ns.
California had about forty s***es after the civil war. Nobody told them they were free so they were s***es for another twenty years. The governor of Oregon had s***es until his death in 1883. And you're right about admitting we owe them ,but we've already had affirmative action and government programs to benefit them , and I remember something about forty acres and a mule. So we already felt we owed them and as far as I'm concerned they were already paid r********ns and sure enough they want more

Yup I reread the article " 100 amazing facts about the negro" by Henry Luis Gates 388,000 according to T***s Atlantic Shipping Records. But I also read a little further this time and learned 60 to 70 thousand may have landed in the Caribbean first and then came to America bringing the total up to 450,000. Still short of your number by about a quarter million. Still a small number compared to the 4 million that went to Brazil

Why would we ever pay money to free,able bodied people who were never s***es? If you look at the history of the world, there have always been s***es. People actually ens***ed their own people and still do in some places, before man was able to travel further from home. Someone said earlier that either in this thread or another that American s***es were stolen from Africa. They are wrong. Going into the interiors of Africa was a death sentence for Europeans. This countries s***e owners bought them directly from other Africans. So my question is this: If at some time all men were subject to s***ery, do we pay all people or ethnic groups for having been ens***ed and do they have to prove they were ens***ed or can they just assume it through color/r****m?

Show me a human being in this country "today", that has been ens***ed and I will work my ass of with you and others for that person to be compensated by the ens***er/s. But to visit some kind of payment or penalty onto people who had nothing to do with enslaving people is straight up Wrong!!!
