A Pennsylvania Democrat is pushing a radical plan to take trillions from taxpayers and give it to wealthy Black Americans as payment for slavery. Representative Summer Lee’s proposal would hand out cash to descendants of enslaved people—even millionaires and billionaires. This outrageous wealth transfer ignores personal responsibility and punishes hardworking Americans who never owned slaves.
Lee’s plan revives a failed $14 trillion scheme first proposed by far-left former Congresswoman Cori Bush, who voters kicked out of office last year. It claims slavery’s effects require endless payouts instead of encouraging unity or self-reliance. The resolution absurdly lists over 100 grievances dating back centuries while ignoring modern opportunities available to all races.
This reparations push comes from the same Squad members who want to defund police and open our borders. Lee stood beside Rashida Tlaib and Ayanna Pressley—politicians who constantly attack American values. Their vision rewards people based on skin color rather than individual merit, contradicting Dr. King’s dream of a colorblind society.
The $14 trillion price tag equals $420,000 per Black American household—enough to bankrupt our economy. Middle-class families would see their taxes skyrocket to fund luxury cars and vacations for wealthy elites like Oprah Winfrey or LeBron James. This isn’t justice—it’s legalized theft disguised as racial healing.
Lee’s resolution blames every social problem on racism while ignoring disastrous liberal policies that destroyed Black communities. Failed welfare programs, soft-on-crime prosecutors, and critical race theory in schools did more harm than any historical injustice. Now Democrats want to double down on these mistakes with reparations.
Most Americans oppose paying for crimes they didn’t commit, but the left keeps pushing this divisive agenda. They’d rather stoke racial tensions than address real issues like inflation, crime waves, or the border crisis. This reparations stunt distracts from Biden’s failures by creating new victim classes dependent on government handouts.
True equality means treating everyone as individuals, not perpetual victims. Conservatives believe in empowering people through quality education, job opportunities, and safe neighborhoods—not guilt-driven cash payments. The American Dream should be earned through hard work, not handed out based on ancestors’ suffering.
This radical reparations scheme shows how out-of-touch Democrats have become. While families struggle to afford groceries, liberals want to waste billions on woke social engineering. Voters must reject these divisive policies and elect leaders who unite Americans around shared values—not skin color or past grievances.
