[REAL TALK] Bernie says No to cash reparations on The Breakfast Club

[BrometheusBob.]

...when asked by Charlamagne tha God if he would support “free cash payouts,” Sanders said, “No.”

“Do you mean a check to every African-American? Well, then, that means a check to every Native American that were wiped out when the settlers came,” he said. “I think the way we go forward is to build America together.”

When did reparations talk re-ignite anyway? I don't remember this much about it even during the Obama days

Just watched this today, and I thought he had a good answer, but still pretty amusing seeing seeing each one of these candidates being forced to pander to every minority group. Atleast he had enough backbone to say basically what every Democrat candidate already knows, and that is that there will not be any reparations.

With the talk of reparations staying alive all this time & the 9th place trophy mfers coming into power more & more over the next 10, 20 & 30 years its a solid bet reparations happen eventually.

It'll likely be in the form of free education or other avenues to improve yourself vs a check doe.

A basic college education should be free to everybody.

I don't disagree. In NY it is free now. Happened just before I moved a year or two ago. If I'd have stayed I'd been halfway to some degree by now cuz I'd have taken them up on it just for the f#ck of it.

If that spreads I think in 10-40 years when reparations do come it could come in the way of specialized training for specific jobs in the surely more "robot" influenced work place of the future.

Mfers gonna be saying they 3% black trying to Elizabeth Warren their way into some free job training in 2052 lol.

Kamala amd Warren re-ignited the reparations talk as a way to buy votes for their upcoming candidacy. Kamala May want to back off on that ever since her daddy revealed their ancestors owned a plantation and salves in Jamaica way back. Pocahontas doesn’t stand a chance, so she will promise the world to anyone so will vote for her.
