I can't even imagine the cost of labor in just one of the antebellum mansions here. There are hundreds in my neighborhood alone. That isn't even counting the plantations. These were just the winter residences. The FREE workmanship is mind-boggling. [Edited 4/5/19 19:12pm] "if you can't clap on the one, then don't clap at all" | |

jjhunsecker said: Some idiot said Blacks just want "free stuff".... Ignore them, because you will always find folks like that, who are the ‘Hannity’ types, who blow smoke out their asses, and are jealous, racist, ignorant and afraid of the progress of Black Americans in this country. They do not have the the best interests of Black Americans in this country, that’s why they make ignorant comments like that. They get pissed off whenever Blacks discuss America’s history of slavery and its present-day racism. Yet, they (the ‘Hannity’ types) get amnesia about the ‘free stuff’, like the stolen land from the Native Americans, free labor from enslaved Africans/Black Americans, and other free stuff their ancestors received/took advantage of, which made them the first recipients of America’s first welfare system.

Gray, Poppy, I found this vid on Marianne Williamson, 2020 Presidential candidate. I’ve actually never heard of her, before I posted that article yesterday, on the Dem candidates running for the presidency, and their pledges on reparations for descendants of African slaves in this country.
As we know, reparations has always been a hot-button issue, in this country, and angers many who don’t feel that descendants of past African and Black Americans, who were enslaved, don’t deserve reparations. But the point many of those in disagreement are missing, (or because they just don’t give a shit), is that the reparations issue goes well beyond slavery. It also involves the post-slavery, racial discrimination laws - Jim Crow/Black codes against Blacks, including the lynchings/murder/rape during and after slavery, and domestic terrorism many Blacks and their communities experienced by racists, etc., Many of the post-slavery incidents, occurred prior to the early 1960s, and after the civil rights act was signed, so again, the reparations issue is not just about what happened during slavery, but also the racial discrimination that continued thereafter towards Black Americans. What do you all think about Marianne Williamson views on Reparations? I’m pretty sure she will anger some folks for speaking on America’s ugly and shameful history. She certainly doesn’t cut corners on the topic, and I find her comments interesting. She is pretty direct with her views on Reparations. Gray, my view on reparations if it actually goes through is not money, but like you suggested Gray.. no taxes, free education or land. It remains to be seen if the Reparations issue ever gets off the table. What say you or anyone else on her comments regarding reparations for descendants of African/Black American slaves?

You can get free land in the USA through something called the Homestead Act 2010. You can get free education in USA its called a high school diploma and do good and you get something called a scholarship, something that rewards people in the now for something called hard work (should we do away with that too?). As for zero taxes? how would that help society in the end? Anywho this type of payback and handing out of free, free, free would be the downfall or society as people barely want to work as it is now.What are you outraged about today? CNN has not told you yet? | |

No everyone should just get everything for FREE. Not that USA has handed out an easy living to many that do absolutely nothing all day (sarcasm). Not that many people don't work and collect a free life. You know because that type of system would work. Free plus no tax would create a more fair and balanced playing field. Plus like Bernie says we would on top of lower taxes take it one step further and have no taxes for many based on race. You know create a system that rewards not working hard. Free internet, water, food, free tv, free music, free movie tickets. Socialism on steroids!What are you outraged about today? CNN has not told you yet? | |

Even Caribbean islands are seeking reparations from Europe. This article is from 2014, so not sure how that is working out for them.

Very interesting. It will be quite complicated, as kingdoms passed many islands around like playing cards. St. Croix USVI had 7 flags alone. The Caribbean has long been forgotten economically. Anything they can do to regain some monetary footing is good. "if you can't clap on the one, then don't clap at all" | |

I generally do ignore them, and refuse to engage with such morons, especially ones who crave the attention ....They are not here to debate rationally (which can and SHOULD be done on any issue), but to just spout off and cause controversy and anger and rancor...
That's why there are a few I refuse to engage, because I would get better responses from a brick wall #SOCIETYDEFINESU | |

Have u seen how much money the U.S. has spent on this fake war? WASHINGTON—U.S. wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and Pakistan have cost American taxpayers $5.6 trillion since they began in 2001, according to a new study, a figure more than three times that of the Pentagon's own estimates.
