So did this purely start by pandering nitwits, or were folks also demanding it?

I still stand where I always have - if you were a slave, by all means.... if you weren't, then STFU about being owed a damn dime.

California Facing $32 Billion Deficit as Leftists in the State Call for $800 Billion in Reparations

A task force in California has recommended reparations payments for slavery that would cost at least $800 billion dollars.

The whole concept is crazy on its face. California was never a slave state. It’s all being advanced under the cloak of the progressive concept of equity.

Gavin Newsom has been vague about his support for this and maybe now we know why.

California is facing a $32 billion deficit. You can’t spend $800 billion when you’re already down by $32 billion.

They can shove the rest of their mythical crap.

BTW, last I heard, of all people, that clown that considers himself the god of CA says no.

Gavin Newsom started it. Looks like he asked a bunch of people who were in favor of reparations to determine if they should get reparations. Idiot.

I wish I could find the clip, but I wasn't inclined to give enough of a crap about it to remember what it's called. Serious and with a straight face, this one person was arguing that $5M wasn't enough. $6M would be more like it. He also still wants his 40 acres but has upgraded the mule to a tractor:cuckoo:

Hard to believe it's come to this level of stupid.

I wish someone would ask me what it is I should get!

Difference being though, many of these folks are fully convinced that they are deserving of money.

Irish and Italians were not treated all that well when they got here. Should they get something

Newsom knows the state is going TOES UP...Bankrupt.
So I see his plan for reparations as his GOLD MINE in disguise.

Sure. He'll give all the Blacks in California their BIG CHECKS.

He knows...those checks will be taxed to the HILT since he has
already decided THE RICH should be paying HIGHER TAXES.

He's CREATING THE RICH with all of those Monopoly Money Checks.

Then he will TAX them all, taking most of it back to pay for all of
THE ILLEGALS he has called into his SANCTUARY, SHIT HOLE CITIES.

The rest were political and religious refugees, and poor people locked into a European caste system who had to scratch and suffer and a lot died. Only thing that's really changed from then until now is the labels. The actors themselves don't look much different.
