Victims get paid is the theme today so find a way to make yourself a victim that's what it's all about.

I had a DNA test and I have no black, Asian, Native American or Jewish DNA, which surprised me because I thought I should have some Jewish DNA and probably some Native American DNA. I also thought I was mostly German and found I was mostly of Viking peoples ancestry, which I guess explains why I am so fair skinned and fair haired.
I have never owned any slaves or used anyone else's slaves. I see no good reason why I should be responsible for anyone who owned or used slaves, back before I was born, whether I am related to them or not. Obviously none of us living now had any part in making the decision to own slaves 154 years ago and more, in the US.

If there's a buck in it....I'm in!
I'm thinking all I need to do is swap a little spit with some black chick and submit a DNA test.

Somewhere around 40 million descendants of slaves are now Americans. Their ancestors were unwilling immigrants to be sure but their descendants are now Americans. They helped build and fought and died for this country.
I can not imagine anyone who loves our country accepting or thinking money is owed. 100,000 dollars times 40 million is a lot. What kind of inflation will that create when that money is printed? Working descendants are likely to invest or spend it wisely. Might not cause a big problem. What about the deadbeats in the inner city? Been on welfare taking dope and stealing their whole life? I expect those idiots to think its a good idea and vote for it. Doesn't surprise me congress wants to hear from an entertainer on the subject rather than an economist.

Reparations for what? Being a free American?

The dumbest thing I ever heard of. Just another way for one race, by way of litigation, to try and get a leg up, on another.

If they are really going to do that can the owners get compensation for food and lodging? ....not to mention free boat rides and hands on agriculture training
Insert profound nonsense here

There will have to be extensive Truth and Reconciliation meetings across the country first before suitable compensation and reparations can be made. I think the blacks should get to the back of the bus so to speak,behind the First Nations.
