    Democrat Black Farmers Bill Would Give Away $8 Billion of Land Yearly in Reparations

    South Africa-style land redistribution?

    Democrat Senators are touting new legislation that would purchase national farmland and give it away to Black Americans for free.

    Democrats Cory Booker, Kirsten Gillibrand, and Elizabeth Warren are sponsoring the the Justice for Black Farmers Act, which seems likely to be the most wide-ranging affirmative action program ever enacted if it’s signed into law. It’s not inaccurate to call the bill a reparations program.

    The law establishes preferences for Black Americans within Department of Agriculture policy. Blacks would be granted free land purchased by the federal government, in total increments that appear to add up to $8 billion a year.

    This only gets fixed through a civil war. You know the rest.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.

    Violates Equal Protection for a start.

    Democrats did a good job in avoiding that problem with LBJ poverty programs that were technically for anyone financially qualified without race being the limiting factor.





    Does this mean Fauxcahontas Warren is taking away land from Indians and giving it to black people?

    Didn't Obama have some sort of black farmer program that handed out money to black farmers who were allegedly discriminated against? Pig Latin, or something?

    Anyway, my question is where would they get the land in order to make these grants? And, what kind of strings would go with it?

    Farming isn't exactly easy--the equipment is expensive and it takes daily work--hard work. Those who are not ready to make some sacrifices need not apply.

    Plus, the best farming ground is already owned and farmed. It's not like any existing farmers are going to donate their land. So, let's imagine they section out some federal land somewhere -- where? -- and how is this black person going to clear it?

    I just gotta say -- this is all baloney. They're not going to give anyone 160 acres of farm ground. They might give someone 160 acres of sand in Nevada with nuclear waste buried beneath--LOL. But, not farm ground.

    If this was logistically possible (it isn't), the acreage would be restricted to farming on the deed, which means if the black farmer couldn't produce on the land, he would still be required to pay taxes on it, and he couldn't sell off any of it or develop it.

    The grant part won't happen, but perhaps they'll "settle" for underwriting subprime loans, which will also leave the black farmer in a world of hurt. Do democrats even think? I ask that question seriously because they don't seem to.
