I approve. As a Jew of colour, you guys owe me gazillions by now
Dirius, Dirius, why on earth should people alive now, most of whom had NOTHING to do with this, and who aren't rich, give their money to people who mostly weren't alive at the time, either?
That's just NUTS.
Because the democratic party is always talking about opression, racism, slavery, etc. And... their speech is that, the black community are owed something. But if democrats are responsible for that oppresion, and they talk all the time about how the black community is owed something, isn't by their own logic that they have to pay them back? From their own money?
I mean... the democratic party is an institution... which has existed since the days of slavery. And, if corporations have
corporate personhood, which grants them rights and responsabilities... isn't the democratic party pretty much the same as that? I'm not a lawyer, and I don't know how political institutions are treated in the U.S., but political parties do look like corporations to me, and that could be proven in a court of law, because they act pretty much like corporations.
To be clear, I'm not saying the innocent tax payer has to pay the money, but the institution of the Democrats, out of their own funds.
In any case, I'm more interested to see what our progressive friends would think of that.. given they are so in favour of justice for minorities.
