Question

If some kind of reparations law is passed, does this mean I have to write a check to Michael Jordan (NW almost $2 billion)?

This guy has an interesting take.

The Dimocrats may as well go all in, and put a stipulation in the bill: Only black people who vote for Dimocrats will get reparations. That's the real reason they want reparations.

Who gets to determine if a black person's heritage entitles them to reparations?

Genealogy expert Elizabeth Warren?

How much is each individual black American expected to pay the descendants of Union soldiers?

It's interesting that the pro-reparationists never start with the Africans and Arabs. Don't forget the Portuguese.

Will people such as Danny Glover get reparations? Will they use the reparation check to build a monument to their ancestors, or donate the funds to a charity? Whatever the situation, money will not cure what was not experienced.

Consider that Holocaust victims don't seek reparations. Hmmm. Maybe the gratitude for surviving is payment enough.

The surviving victims of the Holocaust and the immediate children of dead victims got reparations from West Germany in the 1950s. The Germans paid them voluntarily as art pf their attempt at being readmitted to the human race. The Commies, naturally, ignored the whole thing.

When you start thinking about the details of who pays whom and how much everything breaks down. Will black people descended from black slave owners pay reparations. What about all those trillions of dollars of welfare payments that were supposed to help black people out of the effects of slavery; will the payout be reduced by that amount? What about whites whose ancestors did not come to the US until after slavery was abolished? The whole idea is merely a pander to keep black people voting Kleptocrat because if ten or fifteen percent of the wise up and vote for Trump the Dumbocrats are doomed.
