Ummm...errrrr...

This...just doesn’t make any sense...

Rep. Summer Lee, D-Pa., said during an interview on Sunday that Black Americans would stop voting if they aren’t given reparations.

Lee slammed President Donald Trump’s “anti-weaponization fund,” and argued, “They are playing psychological warfare with us.”

“And that’s what they do,” she continued. “Because, again, they’re trying to disenfranchise you. Because if you believe that you’re never going to get reparations from this system, then you tap out, and you don’t just tap out of the conversation, you tap out of the system. You don’t want to vote anymore. You don’t participate anymore.”

“And they know that that’s how they don’t control Congress,” Lee added. “That’s how you can get your school boards, your board of supervisors. They want us that far out of this system. So right now, we fight for reparations because it’s owed us. It is owed us, so we’re not going to back down on that one way or another.”

This is getting tiresome, as once again the hue and cry is being made with no actual ‘plan’ being proposed. So it sounds like she wants blacks to just ‘stop voting’. Yeah, that’s gonna end well. I’m betting her Dem handlers are going to be having an few back room chats with her about ‘that’...

And just out of curiosity, what about the early colonials that relied heavily relied on unfree white labor. Tens of thousands of poor English, Scottish, and Irish citizens were sent to the colonies as indentured servants. While ‘legally’ distinct from chattel slavery, many worked under brutal, deadly conditions for a fixed period before being granted freedom, if they survived. Do they deserve reparations?

And who decides who is an actual descendant of a slave vs. the ones that came willingly?

And how much is owed to whom? That’s always an interesting question, along with who really owes it. Of course, what I keep seeing is that the ‘government’ owes it usually something in the 7 figure range.

Where does that money come from? Taxes? The ‘general’ fund? All I see is a bunch of questions with no good answer.

And for us older folks, it’s now official Social Security runs out of money in 2032, so we’ll be taking at least a 25% hit in our monthly checks, if not more. This is because the congresscritters have used the SS monies to prop up the general fund and other things replacing the money with IOUs. Welp, now that’s coming due...

And we have a huge national debt, most of the state pension plans are broke, and billions short of what they need, and entire states are damned near broke, and expecting the federal government to bail them out.

Sigh...
