slavery was the biggest money maker resource in the history of mankind. There's a reason an entire war was fought over this. The confederates literally couldn't even imagine a world without slavery. They said so themselves. They even put slavery on their money, like it was a bald eagle or something. Blacks did build america. And i'm not going to go back and forth about this tangent over white washed history.
All the slave states today rank lowest in quality-of-life statistics; all states at the top of the quality-of-life statistics were non-slave states. There's a very good reason for that.
And to be clear, the states came before the federal government. All states are like their own country, in many ways. That's why every state has their own Constitution.
In other words, we northerners don't owe you a damn thing.
they came to a country where the wealth was generated off the back of black slave labor. Again, you shouldn't get to just show up reaping the benefits claiming you don't have to pay into anything.
Yeah, I paid. I paid by serving this country for 10 years and 2 tours in Iraq.

Again, Democrats had plenty of chances to propose “reparations” and they never did.

SO, here I am, still wondering if the ability to rape white women is part of the payback that you envision? Does the man who raped me now feel like he is "even" with the white race?
A lot of black people realize that themselves. Many are opposed to reparations, realizing 1) it’s unfair, and 2) it will drive hostility toward blacks.
And yet......you never hear them publicly say this.....and why? we know the answer to that.
Also, my ancestors came to the US in the late 1800s...from Germany, Austria and Ireland. They lived in
NY. I also don't owe anyone JACK.
