ADOS, what's the minimum cash payment you would accept for reparations? (poll included)

[Voice of Reason]

No it wouldnt. The majority of blacks dont make enough for that to even put a dent in anything. And again, this isnt about poverty, it is about righting a wrong. If you were in a car accident, broke a leg, and sued for money, you wouldnt accept a ticket to a cruise instead of cash.

Then thats their problem. You guys sound ridiculous. You go to school to make money. You get loans to make money. So why skip getting money directly? The culture isnt changing just because people can go to a school for free. Even if you wanted all that, that should be in addition to any direct cash payment.

Germany just announced the 70th year of compensation to vixtims and heirs of the holocaust. Another billion, anns 80 billion euros in total so far.

Germany marks 70 years of compensating Holocaust survivors with payment for home care

“The payments to survivors and the home care program are very close to our heart,” said German Chancellor Olaf Scholz.

Somehow direct cash only is ever an issue when blacks benefit

Exactly the no taxes thing is stupid. Plus it puts a further stigma on us as freeloaders.

We should continue to pay taxes and get reparations other forms including non-taxable direct payments.


Plus that dude is an African that called HBCU's "adult daycares"

To give someone money without any education on how to live fiscally and financially responsible is just as silly. We see stories all the time of athletes and people that get a huge influx of cash and are broke 5 yrs later. You can have the best of intentions but most will just give it right back to the wytes with frivolous materialistic purchases. Thus further enriching them again. I see a lot of people saying they'll invest it but I put the same stock in that as the people that swear they'll flip drugs they found randomly.

ya'll dont want free education and free/discounted health care option?

no taxes, or discount taxes?

Imagine being tax free

Reparations would be the biggest lick that white folks and corporations have ever hit.

Imagine being tax free

That’s where Im at. I’d take 100k and no taxes for the rest of my life.

 

[the elastic]

We should get reservations like the Natives

 

[audemarzz]

I prefer this discussion over arguing back and forth, how peaceful.

 

[CEO of Morgan Industries]

Enough to relocate out of America permanently.

 

[Ski Mask]

Really sad how this topic exposes the low opinion some of you have of your own people. Everybody who got reperations got cash payments with no questions on how theyll spend it, yet were all too stupid to handle it.

like someone else said if that was the case we wouldve been cashed out.

$75k n tax exemption would be the dream.

 

[BaileyPark31]

We should have our own Healthcare exchange option (like Indian health affairs) on top of any cash settlement.

 

[dora_da_destroyer]

Most reservations are destitute shytholes and the residents are living in poverty and lives of addiction. I’m cool

 

[Dameon Farrow]

I dunno. The type of programs you advocate could be repealed or defunded 10 or 20 years down the line. Cash is king.

They'd be the first on the proverbial chopping block. And you'd have the Don't Vote crew mad about it even though they don't lift a finger to put people in sympathetic to keeping the programs in place.

A conglomerate of us would pool the money in spots. Can't control people and what they do with money owed to them

 

[Bigen King]

200k, grants of black businesses and a stream line process for applications, expungement of marijuana convictions (state & federal), rebuilding of the projects with 75% more ADOS residents, section 8 prioritization for single black mothers with +2 kids, more funding for rec centers in the inner cities and low income neighborhoods, national mentorship program that clears existing student debt for those mentor a black kid into college acceptance or trade school.

This is why the no taxes, discount healthcare, and free college tuition option would suffice

Don’t want cash. We need policies that benefit us for generations, cash is one time and those after us won’t be getting payments and to be honest, a lot of people are going to blow that money and not make moves that benefit those after them

• Down payment guarantees for homes
• Free higher education
• Interest free business loans
• Free trade schools
• An additional retirement benefit that kicks in earlier (since we have shorter life expectancies)
• Free healthcare from a premium provider

These are things that will help us for generations to come

Any solution that doesn't start with the check is doomed to fail.

Tax free? If you're working a shyt job or unemployed/disabled? Doesn't do much or anything.
Education? Doesn't guarantee a job or any return, and useless to the elderly.
Healthcare? Cool, but if you're relatively healthy, you could see little to no benefit.
Land? A plot of barren land is useless without money to develop it. See Bruce's Beach.

• Down payment guarantees for homes - If you're poor, how do you afford to maintain the home?
• Free higher education - See above
• Interest free business loans - Same as the down payment guarantee. Your business could fail, then what?
• Free trade schools - Same as education
• An additional retirement benefit that kicks in earlier (since we have shorter life expectancies) - Might as well just cut the check.
• Free healthcare from a premium provider - See above

And most of all, if you cut the check, we can do all of that shyt and more for ourselves, custom tailored to each of our circumstances. These things should be ON TOP of the cash, as we were deprived and excluded of many of these sort of programs that created the middle class, such as the G.I. Bill., and the Homestead Act.


As for the question in the OP, my fair share of whatever number Sandy Darity came up with. IIRC, it's at 20T and climbing.

 

[Ty Daniels]

Anything outside of Direct Cash payments, is a FUKKIN INSULT to our people.

"Free Education" isn't going to do shyt for people who many within the group can't afford a basic living.

How is a person in poverty expected to go to "Free School", while not being able to afford basic day to day living???

WHO IS GOING TO HIRE THE NEWLY "FREELY EDUCATED" Black Folks????

Non-Blacks ALREADY Don't want to Hire Us, but somehow they will AFTER they become even more Disgruntled, because we "Got Free Shyt"?


We need Direct Cash payments, WITH policies, concessions, and programs intended to maintain our people for 400+ Years!

They owe US for:
- Slavery.
- Jim Crow.
- Mass Incarceration.
- Black Family Destruction/Disruption.
- Racial Based Environment poisoning.
- The constant sabotaging and undermining our people that continues to this day.
- ETC...
