California's reparation plan explained, by a former communist, and the impact on the US and world economy.

It's 40 minutes, but nothing to see so listening is good enough.

Not planning to give up 40 minutes of my life that I can never regain. That said, I think I can sum it up pretty concision much fewer words. Keep i mind this is written third person to be read as if was written by one of the advocates.

“We are stupid, have no idea what are doing, but wish to bankrupt the country.”

I think that sums it up pretty well.

There is much more to the story than that, including some very interesting history and a very interesting revelation about the speaker.

Like I said. Not going to waste my time. The entire subject of reparations is laughable. Such a plan will never reach fruition.

Maybe a waste of your time, maybe not, that's up to you and you're right about "laughable". One thing that the explanation is not, is positive about reparations.

Watched the interview/discussion. Anyone with their head screwed on right should already know that this is completely screwed up. I can't imagine that this reparation thing will come to fruition.

Nor can I. Did you catch that the interviewee was once a communist, now recovered?

Yeah, it was an interesting tidbit of the discussion. How anyone can believe that a communist form of government/society is the best way to go is beyond me. Any country, throughout history, that has adopted that mindset has been unstable and crumbled or on it's way of crumbling.

Indeed, some history is missing from school ciriculums, in particular the multiple millions of people killed by Stalin and Mao implementing the "fairness" of communism.

If you want an egalitarian Utopia, you've got to crack a few heads.
