Kamala Harris announces $100B plan for black homeownership, tackling racial wealth gap

"After generations of discrimination, it’s time to give Black families a real shot at homeownership," Harris tweeted on Saturday.

$100B for 4 million black person votes. So what about all the other poor persons of color like people from India or Jamaica?

Pandering at its finest. Never going to happen.

What will Bernie say to top that, slobbering clown...

[Drinkthekoolaid]

I want a plan for white people, red people, yellow people, transgender people, straight people, veterans, Hindus, elderly, vegans,reptilian shape shifters, short people, obese people, vegetarians, and flat Earth society. Housing for all!!

 

[JohnD13]

She's getting right out there with the pandering isn't she. Better pace herself or she'll be offering sex, wait a minute, she's done that already.

Here's my $0 plan that works for all races.

Get a job. Go to work every day. Don't spend money on stuff you don't need. Save up a down payment. Get a mortgage and buy a house.

It works. Ask me how I know.

Upping the ante in the free shit Olympics. And the primaries haven't begun yet! Ultimately some one will announce free winning lottery tickets for everyone (except maybe white males).

Get a job. Go to work every day. Don't spend money on stuff you don't need. Save up a down payment. Get a mortgage and buy a house.

From the article, "While appearing at Essence's Global Black Economic Forum". I'm sorry I missed the Global White Economic Forum does anyone know what was discussed?

Worked for me too.

I secured a mortgage and bought my house 30 years ago when I was 25 years old.
It's not rocket science... LOL ... Just have to WORK for it.

Yeah, honky's need not apply.

I think 'honky' is the funniest pejorative term for any race.

I got called honky once by a girl outside a dive bar after she stole my beeper off my belt (it was a long time ago). I thought it was hysterical and was laughing my ass off. Good times!

I'm pretty sure Bill Clinton tried a version of that idea, he mandated banks to give loans to people that couldn't pay them. Then the banks sold all the sub-prime mortgages to un-suspecting investors. Then when the people that couldn't pay their mortgages were foreclosed upon, the investors were left with nothing, the banks owned a bunch of empty, distressed properties that they couldn't possibly sell for enough money to break even on, and in the end, the government < read : TAXPAYER > bailed out the banks and the economy is still trying to recover from the whole mess.

Good plan though....

Let's try it again. I'm sure it will be different this time.

That's the problem today. Nobody wants to work. The idiot liberals know this and pander to them by offering free shit to get votes. Then those of us that are working get to pay for it.

Hell - I don't WANT to work either but I'm willing to so my family has enough to get by. At least until the idiots go full socialism. Then I'll say fuck it and live off the system too. Its what we all should do just to watch the country collapse in a matter of months. Of course they'll find a way to blame Trump for the collapse.

 

[SomeSoldier]

1. I am pretty sure that is racist.

2. Isnt this how the last housing bubble started?

"After generations of discrimination, it’s time to give Black families a real shot at homeownership," Harris tweeted on Saturday.

So is she saying the only way to give blacks a “real shot” at home ownership is to literally give it away to them? Because I don’t recall any of my ancestors getting houses literally handed to them. And yeah they were discriminated against, they were Irish. So I guess I just don’t get how she doesn’t see this sort of shit as incredibly condescending to black people. Of course your typical democrat won’t see it that way though, they are brain dead

When you listen to some of the things that the Democrats say.

Some of it sounds pretty racist to me... Seriously

It's like they think that a black person can't be successful on equal terms.

That's racist IMO.

 

[GOPerfect]

This in itself is, in my opinion, is one of the most racist things there is.

What she, and the rest of the Democrats running for President, is saying is, blacks can not make it on there own without assistance from the rest of the non-black citizens of America.

How can any one think different?

Without the help of "White America", black people can not succeed!

Agreed that's the side that no one considers. Most people view it from the "they deserve special treatment" perspective -- which, in and of itself, is racist. Not from the "well, why can't they do it themselves?" perspective. (HINT: Dems don't want to consider that perspective, by and large, because it implies their policies of helping the black community don't fucking work.)

 

[Saltwater60]

Remember there are more poor whites than blacks in the USA.

Again all they are doing is buying votes literally. This is insane.

Whatever happened to any discrimination is bad?

 

[Steal2B]

Let's give away money taxpayers don't have and destroy the nations potential for a future based on the lie of white financial privilege

 

[redtail]

America is so racist it elected a black man to be President.
Twice.
The malfunction with the leftists logic is amazing.

 

[TEOTWAWKI inc.]

I have always thought it would be better for the government to assign each taxpayer a dependent, instead of withholding social security and medicare. We would each be responsible for feeding, clothing, and housing ours. Mine would have to do some chores around the house for it though.
