"It's time to go big."
Those are the words of Robert Johnson, the founder of BET.
Well… as if our national deficit isn't high enough!
Our national debt is the highest it's EVER been with no end in sight. Even if we taxed the entire economy at 100% for an entire year, we wouldn't be able to pay off the debt!
Yet… Johnson is calling for $14 trillion in reparations for slavery.
Slavery ended in 1863.
Though no slaves are alive today and no slave owners are alive today, Johnson wants $14 trillion in reparations for slavery.
"Wealth transfer is what's needed," he said.
Ummm…. what about the white people who never owned slaves? Or whose ancestors fought for freedom? Do they have to pay reparations?
What about the people who immigrated to the United States legally? Black, Asian, Hispanic, Indian, and yes, even Caucasian. Do they need to pay reparations for slavery?
