To all you millions of RedState readers who love The View: This one’s for you.
On Thursday, the gals discussed Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s argument against reparations during a congressional hearing the day before.
Here’s what Mitch pitched:
“I don’t think reparations for something that happened 150 years ago, for whom none of us currently living are responsible, is a good idea.”
Makes sense.
I’d like to add: How would you know whose relatives did what? And how would you know whose relatives had what done to them?
And why stop at racial lines?
And why stop at slavery?
Why not force families in solved cold case files to pay other families?
If we decide that, for every bad deed, there’s a burden incumbent upon relatives, we’re gonna need the biggest government bureaucracy in the history of the world to sort that out. And that bureaucracy’s gonna cost me money and stress me out. Now I want their grandchildren to pay my grandchildren.
Back to Mitch:
He referenced the vast social evolution we’ve experienced since the end of slavery, noting civil rights legislation and the election of “an African-American president.”
