I think this is going to be done...


The California Reparations Task Force, which was created by state legislation in 2020, is considering a proposal to give just under $360,000 per person to approximately 1.8 million Black Californians who had an ancestor enslaved in the U.S., putting the total cost of the program at about $640 billion.

The task force's final recommendations for reparations will be submitted to the California Legislature, which will then decide whether to implement the measures and send them to Newsom's desk to be signed into law.

According to an expert and leading reparations activist, however, Newsom, a Democrat, should be prepared to use his own power to enact such measures for the state's Black residents if the legislature doesn't.

They can barely keep the Commie state afloat now. I hope the freeloading ones move back and bury the state and the hard working folks stay away from that trap.

Just where are they getting this Money and just where are they finding these slaves. My Ancestors were Irish and Indians and they were enslaved so why does that make me eligible for anything?? You work and EARN your money!!! These will just get drugged up, BROKE and then Demand more!!!

How many Chinese slaves worked on the railroad out that way?

Lots....plus women were denied rights until early 1900's...

Again, more Caucasians have been held in slavery during the course of human history than black folks have.
Where's my money???

BUT, since I'm feeling particularly magnanimous, any American citizen who was once a slave can receive $10,000 from any American citizen who owned or currently owns them.

Also, it's kind of curious that there is only one continent where slavery currently exists.
Why aren't they working to stop THAT with the same fervor that they are demanding MORE FREE STUFF for themselves???

The rest of you; shut up, get to work, take responsibility for YOUR actions, and make your own life better.
It's worked for hundreds of millions of people, it'll work for you too!

Does everyone know that there was no slavery in CA like there was in the South?

And as Law Dog Mentioned the Chinese among others including the native Americans were treated very poorly in the 1800's CA.

The blacks like to think they have some monopoly on victimhood, they don't lots of people were treated very poorly and also enslaved though out history.

Besides all that I say go ahead and hand out some cash, run CA into the ground faster the better, lets get this over with.
How long do you think $360,000 will last most people. I'd bet within a year they will be broke again and right back to where they started.
Mean while everyone selling fancy cars, drugs, booze and other vices will get rich off the sudden boom of "free" cash.

they figure it will last till just before the 24 election..when more will be promised. Just like biden promised people in atlanta $ if they voted liberal....

When the checks arrive I may go to L.A. Sit in my pickup and watch the festivities. This ought to be good. Any bets on whether the mexicans decide they want to get a share and head to the black communities? on second though maybe I will just watch the news coverage. Good opportunity to make money. I bet 90% are broke again in 3 months.

They just want to stop people from moving out, this will encourage them and others to come in and take advantage
of just another giveaway for no reason, absolutely irrational and criminal how governments spend our money without
our say in any of it, and this is one giant example of a ridiculous idea !!

If the dems. Are serious about this they should give them money out of their pay checks!

Guss, great idea, however we all know nothing ever comes out of a Demo's pocket !

What does Kalifornia get in return?

More voters !!

They have no clue how they will pay for those goofy plans but they support the idea.

I think I need to move to CA and open a tire store that sells those fancy rims. Can moonlight selling pot out the back door. Be rich in a year and retire.

Amazing all the different races that were slaves at one point yet the blacks think that it only happened to them. They’ll (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) it all away in a few months and demand more.

Don't forget gold teeth.

I hope they do it. Looks like a total train wreck to me. Only thing I fear is the Federal government trying to bail them out when the ship sinks. I wonder what the proof would be.

That will boost the local economy.

That is not going to happen just lots of BS political bantering to get votes.

Corporate america will raise prices and take it all away from them. Local governments will tax everyone as if everyone received the payment. Have we forgotten what happened after the covid payments went out. We are still feeling the wrath of that one right now. Why would California that wasn't a state when slavery was legal, feel they need to make payments to relatives of slaves who moved there? My family from the north, fought to free them . I should receive twice as much money for my lose to their free them.

The dems already control Cali, why would they propose this to get more votes. If they propose it but don't pass it or Governor doesn't sign off on it, it will only make their voting base mad. And those against it will be upset it was even considered.

I think the money should go to the American Indians. We took the country from them literally at gun point and enslaved them on reservations that they really don't own. We're out of control.

What about the Japanese that were put in camps during WW2. By you know who a DEMOCRAT.

Lol.....was thinking the same ......22 inch Dubs

They don't deserve it either.

this could be great for the fur market STYLIN'

That state is nowhere near afloat, the unfunded liabilities are crushing it to the tune of hundreds of billions and rising.
Worsened even more with millions leaving the state and receiving those funds to be spent elsewhere.

Osky

Excuse me says the Breed?

Osky

Does this apply to short peckered albino black guy that can't dance?

It should, since that would cover most of us!

Telling natives they are victims hasn’t worked out very well, it needs to stop!

Oh pleeease. Most of the land was bought and paid for. The only reasons guns were pointed is because they pointed them first. And I suppose you think whites intentionally infected them with smallpox too, and killed the buffalo to starve them, and....... Come on man.

That is why they want to SUE the ones leaving!! They do not have any Tax payers left!!!

The Indians didn't cry about Reperations!! They got smart and built Casinos and they all get rich!! That is why they are all given a house free when they get of age. Those Casinos are money making and the Indians were smart enough to do it. They didn't go spend their money on Drugs and BS!!!

randall, you been on different reservations than me

If the indians had invented ships and guns before the europeans did, caucasian's would be on reservations. They are not morally superior. Nothing was done to indians that they were not doing to each other

P.S. there are still hundreds of thousands of slaves on the African continent. Negros are not morally superior either.

inflation is horrible now. What will it be like when the fed prints even more billions of dollars???????

3togo if you feel guilty send all your income to whatever tribe your feeling the most guilty about

From what ive heard from many people who have been to or lived out in western or north western states and even Canada. The indians are the blacks out there. An ambulance driver who lived near a reservation told my father that quite often they would get a 911 call from inside the reservation saying one of their children had ingested something and was vomiting. They would go out there to take the child to the hospital to have their stomach pumped and a heap of indians would pile into the ambulance and ride into town. Once there they would all scatter out in town doing whatever they wanted. Basically they would force a child to eat something that upset their stomach just so a bunch of them could get a free ride into town. Also was told that in Canada there were trailer parks that had clean looking trailers until you noticed the windows busted out and doors ripped off hinges. Just destroyed. Said that the government would buy the indians new trailers every seven years because that is how long they would last them. Obviously I know they are not all like that but some of them are still animals.
