Also... the gov't of Germany paid the gov't of Israel over 14 years or something.

Not exactly apples to apples.

No one alive today was even remotely affected by slavery. And tax payers today shouldn't be on the hook for something some people's ancestors were responsible for over 100 years ago.

Reparations is just more of "give me what you have because I feel I deserve it"
Which is an asinine thought process of so many Americans.

Long gone are the days of "give me what I'm due because I've earned it"
Just being born gives so many people this idea that they deserve or are owed something.


Ain't nobody trying to hear that.

And you only need to look to the African Americans that think reparations are idiotic and not needed to know it's just a political talking point from the left and another tool they use to claim anyone who disagrees with them is racist.

All of those arguments are sound.
So what if, instead, they claim that the reparations they want are actually for a hundred years of legalized housing discrimination, employment discrimination, and education discrimination?

Then it is no longer a Reparations For Slavery movement and becomes a Reparations For A Hundred Years of Legalized Housing Discrimination, Employment Discrimination, and Education Discrimination movement, which then opens it up to the descendants of the Chinese, Japanese, Irish, Italians, Jews, American Indians, and myriad other groups. We'll all just pay each other $20 and call it even.
