Hold up...

SAN FRANCISCO (AP)

• Payments of $5 million to every eligible Black adult

• the elimination of personal debt and tax burdens

• guaranteed annual incomes of at least $97,000 for 250 years

• homes in San Francisco for just $1 a family.

These were some of the more than 100 recommendations made by a city-appointed reparations committee tasked with the thorny question of how to atone for centuries of slavery and systemic racism. And the San Francisco Board of Supervisors hearing the report for the first time Tuesday voiced enthusiastic support for the ideas listed, with some saying money should not stop the city from doing the right thing.

Several supervisors said they were surprised to hear pushback from politically liberal San Franciscans apparently unaware that the legacy of slavery and racist policies continues to keep Black Americans on the bottom rungs of health, education and economic prosperity, and overrepresented in prisons and homeless populations.

Where are they finding those homes? Going to do some Zimbabwe/South African style redistribution? Won't that affect more Asian Americans than anyone in SF?

If you're a small/medium business can you pay those wages? If you're a large business are you still employing your current black workers?

Slavery still exists in some of the world (some might say the minimum wage or restaurant jobs relying on tips in the USA is slavery).

Subscribed to see how this would play out in the real world. I get the union approach of asking beyond what you really expect to get but the committee doesn't have any economists involved, does it?

PS - I'm not black and don't live in San Francisco...I'm just an outsider observing [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

No, it's the criminal hedge funds that need to get what they deserve. The bank fallout is from poor decision-making mostly, but hedge funds work to actively destroy companies and steal money from the market, illegally at times although you'll never hear about it because politicians and the rich are in bed with them.

Weak. I am a pacifist. Sorry my criticism of the state is more coherent then yours is.

The world needs population control (this would work best if a natural disaster or species arose that preyed very efficiently on humans). And stupid mean neglectful smelly ppl need to die much earlier and more efficiently than their 40s - and - 60's over the course of a decade. Like u should die within 1 year of getting HIV or herpes or mega obese or kidney dialysis, or addicted to drugs, even caffine and cigarretes... not go on living like 15 years more. 1 year is plenty long to get your affairs in order.

And yes I know that means me too.

The biggest problem is that the government is making these deciscions and mega corps and big international firms. (in a highly manipulative and abusive, exploitive way) Not G-d. Or nature.

I believe the true reason for this is that Satanists are in league with demons who get something out of torturing spirits and souls and trying to corrupt them. Every time they get you to die in rage or anguish they win another one over the their side to oppress other people with and perpetuate the system cosomologically, so when your spirit is reborn your reborn into the body of a child abuser. Or someone who is dependent on the state and is further turtured to crumble and corrupt them. They have no memories of their past lives, but the essense of what they are is broken. For exammple. And this feeds the devils and demons.

The only path out of this is: Service unto others and self sacrifice. At some point when the cosmological scales tip hard enough people will be forced into slavery for thousands of years again, even tho we kinda technically already are tehre if you think you are not a slave then you do not know the truth of the universe, because you and your collective kind are a punch pillow for the masters of this world.

It needs to get much worse before it will get any better. So "resistance" is a fools errand. It's demonic. Where as agrreement and consent is devlish and satanic.

Learn to meditatve and do without - loving kindness, and compassion. Even for the demons and devils.

So let’s cherry pick history to a specific spot that makes white people look the worst while simultaneously completely ignoring all the good things white people have done

So it’s a goal post thing. Kind of like let’s look at the huge drop in Muslim extremist attacks by shrinking our window and moving the left goalpost to juuust after 9/11
