(Niamh Harris) The legislation would have the Department of Revenue establish a reparations payment program to black residents “who can demonstrate heritage in slavery” and have identified as “African-American” for at least ten years.

According to a copy of the state Senate bill, the government will use taxpayer money to pay six figures to any person who can demonstrate that they are a descendant of American slaves and have “identified as African-American” on legal documents.
Thegatewaypundit.com reports: In order to qualify for the reparations, a person must live state for at least two years before the application deadline of Dec. 31, 2022.
“The payment would be an annuity where recipients would receive $123,000 paid out over the course of their life, plus interest,” the Daily Wire report says. “The average black man has a lifespan of 75 years, so if a 30-year-old black man applies for the reparations program he would receive a yearly payment of approximately $2,733 per year from the Oregonian government. If the recipient receives a five percent interest rate on the reparations money, they could receive up to $2,870 per year.”

The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.

You are a disgusting human. Africans were stolen and brought here. Their culture and heritage…their very identity were beaten, raped, and murdered out of them. Products and breakthroughs were stolen and claimed by the very people reaping violence on them. This is something that continues to happen. Not once has a black person taken shit from you, yet, you would deny them even 1% of what they are owed. You were done dirty, too. And we have always stood by you. Our men, women, and children were bred like animals, experimented on like rats, and systemically destroyed for centuries. We have no government protections and nothing to claim as our own. Not even our names or culture. Hell, the only ethnicity we have is the one the government tagged us with. But you would begrudge us around $200 a month, not even close enough to make a dent in most car payments…and just for one state worth of people? Yeah, you are a disgusting subhuman.

Jodi, Reparations is a fundimentally unlawful and unfair concept. Stealing from people who didn’t commit any enslavement because they are white is an insane “solution.” It’s a marxist lie and part of the deep state agenda for divide and conquer. Instead of battling with each other about how victimized we are, we should be working together to use our whits to improve ALL OUR LIVES.

The webadress should tell you everything about this site. And the aristotle quote! Is icing on the shit-sandwich . Who is entertained by unacceptable thoughts? How to discern info links and guides. What would you do if your new Dr. offers you a pamphlet about how to know if his diagnosis is actually right? U would run and see a new Dr I hope.

Will the reparations have unpaid child support as well as fines, owed court costs and civil judgements deducted from the gross payments?
If reparations stem from a moral obligation toward social responsibility then the payments should represent such morality.
