The burden of proof is on you. If you're going to claim that someone owes reparations for their crimes and the color of their skin is all the proof needed you're engaging in racist stereotyping.
I never said someone, I said a America. It would not be based upon color of skin, but lineage from enslaved Americans.

What are you talking about? You’re the one obsessed with skin color. Do you not realize that other non-white people would also be contributing as well? Not everyone in the U.S. is either white American or African-American you know and we pay taxes.
I have dark skin, am the first generation born in the US and am of African and Asian heritage, primarily. I’d be paying too because I’m not African-American. No one in my family was here pre-1970s. You don’t see me whining and complaining about it. This is my country and this country has a debt to pay.

It will end up being like a class action lawsuit. $500 gazillion will be set aside, and by the time its all said and done, lawyers would get 98% of it, and actual people (no, lawyers are not people ) would get about $4.36 each.

With that said Id be opposed to it all anyway.
This post should be reported! Rude! Lawyers are people!
How does this "reparations" thing work? Is the United States going to reimburse the descendants of those Americans that had their property taken from them-by the US government? Slavery was wrong and absorbance. But it was also legal-and the slaves were the property of their owners. So-are we going to reimburse those who's property was stolen by the federal government? We could have avoided the loss of 600,000 Americans had the government simply purchased the slaves freedom.
