For the 2020 democratic presidential candidates, it’s all about trying to buy votes. Joe Biden will cure your cancer, Eric Swalwell will “fire the shit” out of Ivanka Trump, and they will all give you tons of “free” stuff if you vote for them. To separate themselves from the pack, some democrats are promising billions of dollars in federal assistance that can only be used by blacks. I’m not sure how Constitutional that is, but somebody should tell them that blacks are already going to vote for democrats so they should be trying to bribe other groups and stop wasting their time.
In the fantasy world where Elizabeth Warren becomes the next president she promises to sign executive orders that will magically increase the wages of women of color. The Hill reports:
Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) on Friday unveiled a new plan to tackle the pay gap between men and women as well as racial disparities in employee compensation if she is elected president.
…the 2020 candidate touted a set of executive actions that would impose new requirements on federal contractors, and penalize companies shown to have poor track records on race or gender-based pay by ending contracts or refusing future business.
“It’s time to build an America that recognizes the role that women of color play in their families and in the economy, that fairly values their work, and that delivers equal opportunity for everyone,” Warren said.
In a nutshell, Warren is going to sign some EOs that force private businesses to pay women of color more money no matter how unqualified and incompetent they are. I feel like something this sexist, racist, and fascist violates at least 10 Constitutional Amendments.
Warren has her cultural appropriation issues and Kamala Harris is also struggling with her own ethic identity problems so she upped the ante with a plan to straight-up shovel money at black people. Fox News reports:
Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., announced Saturday that she would invest $100 billion of federal money into housing assistance for black families as part of an effort to close the racial wealth gap in the United States if elected president.
While appearing at Essence’s Global Black Economic Forum, she emphasized the role of homeownership in driving the growth of wealth in the U.S. According to Harris’ campaign, she would help 4 million homebuyers through down payment and closing-cost assistance — granting up to $25,000 from the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
“After generations of discrimination, it’s time to give Black families a real shot at homeownership,” Harris said.
I’m not a fancy-ass lawyer or US Senator like Harris, but even I understand that you cannot legally give $100 billion in taxpayer dollars to be used exclusively by black people. In reality, this is Harris’ attempt to give slave reparations without calling them slave reparations.
Finally, Beto O’Rourke, who is uncomfortable with his white privilegde, tried to one-up the field by offering over a half-trillion of our money to black people. Fox News reported on this too:
Former Rep. Beto O’Rourke, D-Texas, unveiled another plan geared toward ending racial inequality on Saturday, pledging that as president he would vastly expand the federal government’s investment in women- and minority-owned businesses.
The 2020 hopeful claimed his plan would “unlock over half a trillion dollars” in resources and “spur the development of 200,000 new women and minority owned small businesses.” It also would redirect $100 billion in federal contracting toward small businesses, expand access to mentorship opportunities, open a public credit reporting agency and work through certain avenues to expand access to markets and capital.
“Beto understands the unique challenges facing small business owners – and that those challenges are only heightened for women entrepreneurs and people of color,” said the Beta O’Dork campaign.
Here’s a weird little fact that may surprise some democrats: in the same way that the government can’t discriminate against black people it also can’t discriminate against white people. The government cannot have a program that is only open to people of a particular race. The government cannot allocate funds that are to be used in a race specific way.
Where are the brave liberal media firefighters lambasting these blatantly unconstitutional sexist racist plans? If President Trump tried to give 1 dollar of his own money to a white Boy Scout, the liberal media would be in a fury over the racist, misogynist, and illegal nature of his plan. Here we have democrats offering up hundreds of billions of dollars on blacks/women of color-only programs and nobody in the media has said shit about it.
