Reparations are just another Dem vote-buying ploy: “Alright, there, darkies, vote straight D, this shows you which side your bread is buttered on.” Standard Dem playbook – free stuff with OPM. The numbers show that nobody’s serious.

Almost every country will allow residence and/or citizenship with sufficient grease. Central and South American countries are fairly reasonable whereas the further up the “-world” ladder, countries raise the ante. Spain is something like $350k of owned real estate. NZ is evidently well above that. They do have some native industrial capacity; Fischer and Paykel, for instance.

Have you been there? Have you talked to the natives who know what’s going on in their economy? It’s easy to look at wiki or some other economic site and quote statistics, and think you know all there is to know.

Agriculture accounts for 5.5% of the value-added in the New Zealand economy and absorbs a similar share of the labor force. I’m sorry acknowledging that upsets you.

RE: Supreme Court leak.

What a joke! It appears that this “investigation” was conducted by Inspector Clouseau.

Well, that’s about the last American institution whose reputation used to be one of, at least–rigor and competence–that we can now add to the pile of compromised and failed institutions, right on top of our military, whose leadership is now focused on “diversity” and “inclusion” issues and not on war fighting.

Snow on Pine:

The San Francisco reparations are explicitly not for slavery. They are supposedly for discrimination of various kinds that occurred in San Francisco.

Re: Reparations

All over the world, every group/tribe of people has, apparently, at some time or other, moved in and taken over/taken land from another group and that group has, in turn, been subjugated/enslaved or dispossed by the next incoming group, and so on throughout history.

Slavery has also been a practice of–it seems–every culture throughout history (and it still exists, to this day, in some countries.)

Thus, to be fair, if reparations are to be given to one group they must be given to all other groups, going back through history along the chain of dispossessions and/or enslavements.

There is also the major problem of how you can make someone who has never held slaves–or whose ancestors never held slaves, and force him or her to pay reparations to someone who has himself, nor have his ancestors of the last couple of generations, ever been enslaved.
