[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok...just a minute here. Slaves were counted as 3/5ths for purposes of representation in the House. They didn't vote then. Women didn't vote then either. So this reparation idea, which is essentially to change the outcomes of elections, is asinine. What's next? Oh, you're here illegally but you paid some taxes so we will give you half a vote? Well Mr. Johnson, while I appreciate your service to our nation did you live through the fifties and sixties? After repairing the injustices and inequities of the past, Jim Crow anyone, we are now going to create a new form of injustice? Again, asinine. One person, one vote.[/quote] Damn, Black women weren't allowed to vote until the passage of the 1964 voting rights. Shafted again. [/quote]
