If they were rational it would go something like: "Who should get reparations? descendants of slaves. Who should pay the reparations? descendants of those who profited."
So people like omar wouldn't get anything, and people like kamala would pay it. Really it would be mostly jews and billionaires paying it, but kamala would at least owe something.
You state it like that and alllll of a sudden (((academics))) will turn that $12T into $12M.
Also, one way boat rides with whatever plan is settled on.
...descendants of those who profited."
Profited is the word they use, specifically because it's vague. All of us in some way have "profited" from slavery, to their rationale. If we use 'descendants of slaves' as the payee category, we should use 'descendants of slave traders' as the payer criteria.
I think they use "benefited". Yeah, the language would have to be more precise, but there are just a handful of families who traded slaves, and a handful who had large farms.
It doesn't matter that there was a relative handful of traders involved. Go after descendant of the people who owned the slave ships. I wonder (((what group))) of people that was.
