California Announces $1.2 Million Reparations for Every Black Citizen

This is a case of black liberals and race-hustlers seeking empathy for injustices they did not endure and grievances that do not belong to them and of white liberals seeking absolution for crimes they did not commit. Signaling a virtue one does not possess is a costly form of sanctimony as the tragically benighted state of California already knows but prefers to ignore.

California Task Force Recommends Reparations for Black Citizens, Sparking Debate Over Its Feasibility and Fairness

By: Mark Tito, Newsbreak, May 11, 2023:

In a groundbreaking move, a panel in California has recommended a plan to pay reparations to its Black citizens, making it the first state in the United States to do so. The recommendation proposes that each Black citizen be paid $1.2 million as a means of addressing past wrongs.

The announcement has elicited a range of opinions, with some commending the proposal and others raising concerns about its feasibility and fairness. It is worth noting that the plan is still in its early stages and has not yet been approved, but it has the potential to set a precedent for other states to consider similar measures.

According to a report by NBC News, the move follows the establishment of a task force to study the issue of reparations. The task force, which was created last year, is made up of nine members appointed by Governor Gavin Newsom and is charged with developing proposals for how the state can make amends for its role in slavery and discrimination against Black people.

The panel has recommended that California pay $1.2 million in reparations to each Black citizen who can prove that they are descendants of slaves and who have lived in California for at least two years. While some have praised the move as a step in the right direction, others have raised concerns about the cost of the program and the potential for fraud.

Economists on the panel have estimated that the program could cost the state more than $800 billion, a figure that has raised eyebrows among some California residents. Tweeting in response to the news, one user said, “California has an annual budget of around $237 billion, but economists on the panel said reparations could cost the state more than $800 billion.”

Others have questioned the fairness of the program, with some wondering how the state will determine who is eligible for the payments. One user tweeted, “What if I have Black slave ancestors but I’m 95% white, I should get reparations too.” Another user tweeted, “I’m not mad at this but who voted for this and who qualifies for it?”

Finally, my worth has been determined! Time to move to Cali and cash in on that sweet reparations money. #blackexcellence #CashMoney

While the plan is still in its early stages and has yet to be approved by the state legislature, it has sparked a lively debate among California residents. Some have praised the move as a necessary step in the fight for racial justice, while others have criticized it as a waste of taxpayer money.

According to a report by Fox Business, some California residents have expressed concerns about the state’s ability to fund the program, given the state’s other pressing issues, such as homelessness and the high cost of living. One user tweeted, “Gonna be disastrous. Can’t fix homelessness, but you’ll appropriate parse out money to people?”

Despite the concerns, the move has been celebrated by some as a long overdue step towards addressing the injustices of the past. One user tweeted, “Finally, my worth has been determined! Time to move to Cali and cash in on that sweet reparations money. #blackexcellence #CashMoney.”

The politicians who approved the reparations commision figured they would be termed out of office before the bills became due. Ooops. They didn’t kick the can far enough down the road, so that some other politicians would have to deal with it.

Slavery was the best thing that ever happened to these greedy ingrates, providing them the opportunity to live in a white people’s country, and the worst thing that ever happened to us.

We’ve already given them $40 Trillion is welfare, fought a bloody Civil War when 750,00 white American sons gave their lives for their freedom, voted for an African president, lowered standards everywhere so they feel better, gave them the NBA, NFL and Grammy Awards, our white sisters and daughters, like Charles Barkley says, “Shut up or I’ll f*ck your Momma,” now they want a gratuitous windfall that will bankrupt the state and create black supremacy, i.e. chaos, in one mass travesty.
They should be grateful to live here with us and not in Africa with their own merciless kind.

We should be putting between 25-50 percent of these Africans in prison, not giving them a million dollars just to see what happens.
Of course they’re never going to see a million dollars. And what do you think’s going to happen when they all realize that at once?

There are some Blacks as well as Whites and other races/Nationalities that have and are abusing the/our systems, the Blacks aren’t the only ones in this world that USED to be slaves. The past is the past and NO ONE deserves ANY extra money for what happened so so long ago. These are just crybaby’s only out for money, being woke, politics and themselves!!!!! You can cry all you want and try to justify it but no matter what you say, do or think about, you can’t stop the fact that there is no more slavery and life has moved past your bull crap and the past WILL never ever ever change who you are NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Man up and move on or life will pass you bye with NOTHING but probably bloodshed!

If anyone is given reparations then they need to leave this country for the motherland since they would have been better off there if their ancestors weren’t sold into slavery by the other feral animal tribes!

And the feds need to stop anymore tax money being given to calimexistan since they keep finding ways of wasting our tax dollars!

This is unconstitutional as it is clearly discrimination based on race!

I live in California and I consider this proposed reparations to black people to be crazy and ridiculous. Also the state of California can not afford this. Also this is a form of socialism and communism. This would be theft of money from one group of people to give it to another.

Where are the reparations for whites and negroes enslaved for a 1400 year period by moslems? What about the black slave owners, has anyone separated that group out or do they get reparations for being slavers?

How will they prove who is “Black?”…Oh, wait…. they’ll use DNA analysis—Oh, wait…is that biological analysis also applicable to determining male or female or something else?

The ignorance of California’s liberal, woke-inspired dimwit ‘leaders is stunning to this foreigner. Slavery has existed throughout human history. It existed during Biblical days, not least under the Romans when peoples of a variety of races were enslaved. At least 95 percent of black Africans sold into slavery were captured and sold into slavery by their own people in Africa. Why are reparations not being demanded of the descendants of those Africans who sold their people into slavery? Where are reparations for those southern Europeans taken into slavery when for 400 years before the Crusades, the Arabs attacked southern Europe, and for Europeans taken and sold into slavery by the Vikings, and by the Ottoman Muslims after they invaded south-eastern Europe? Reparations for black citizens in California who never experienced slavery but now wish to mooch off the system, is just so insane. Those who conceived of this nonsense are beyond infantile. Sane white citizens should abandon California to the addicts and bums and allow it to be the lunatic asylum it has become under insane liberal rule.

Can I identify as a black man who has lived in California his whole life?
Why not?
If a guy can dress like a woman and be declared so, why can’t I be a brutha from Watts?

No Common Sense. History & Facts Show that Calf. was NOT a SLAVE STATE Prior to the Civil War Era. There were NO Black Slaves in Calif. and No Slave Owners In Calif. SO Their Claims are BOGUS to Begin with. Another Scam like Climate Change. The Taxpayers of Calif Should Have as General Strike to STOP all the Nonsense and Excessive Govt. AND Demand a Recall of all the Political Hacks Responsible for this and other Idiotic Tax and Spend Programs in Calif. You Voters Need to Reel Them In and FIRE THEM.

Now…what about those people who, suddenly, identify as ‘black’? I mean…just like with trans…if you ‘say’ you are something different than what you are…then that, is what you are, right?
Of course…California defaulted on a federal loan of about $18billion, recently. How do you default on a federal loan? Why…you just intentionally not pay it.
This is all a scam, like forgiving student loans. Gavin must be getting ready to run for office and is trying to buy votes.
How about the ‘reparation payments’ come from Africa? After all…they sold their people to the white man in the first place.

Monty Python is alive and well living in the once Golden State of California.
I guess all those Affirmative Action Programs were not enough as you can take a horse to the water but you cant make it drink.
”First we have to clean up the neighborhood”… Malcolm X.. and look what THEY did to him.
Every Race of humanity lives in America, yet only one complains that everybody does not do enough to help them succeed.
Black folks in America need to learn that success is the best revenge.
