Racism, even if well-intentioned, is still racism

Good. Let’s hope this racist policy dies for good.

A federal judge has halted Joe Biden‘s ‘unconstitutional’ $4 billion program to pay up to 120 percent of black, Hispanic, Asian or Native American farmers’ debt, after 12 white farmers sued claiming it discriminated against them.

 

Wisconsin Judge William Griesbach issued a temporary restraining order Thursday blocking the loan forgiveness program Biden put in place after saying he wanted to tackle longstanding inequalities for farmers of color.

 

Judge Griesbach said the plan failed to provide adequate examples of recent hardships imposed on farmers from minority backgrounds. He also claimed that in trying to end one type of discrimination, the program ended up creating another.

Biden’s $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan set aside $4 billion to the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) for loan forgiveness for socially disadvantaged farmers and ranchers.

 

The money would be used to pay up to 120 percent of direct or guaranteed farm loan balances for black, American Indian, Hispanic, Asian American or Pacific Islander farmers.

    A GW Bush judge using common sense.

    Next-up? “Minority Business” set-asides which are costing Wisconsin taxpayers a LOT of money.

    President Sparklefart said Biden’s presidency is like the third term of Sparklefart’s and perhaps he’s right.
    Sparklefart didn’t do anything about the violence in the inner cities and neither is Biden or the liberal mayors in those cities. Sparklefart did nothing about the horrendous education in the inner cities and neither does Senile and his fake doctor wife and the liberal school boards.
    And a Black unemployment rate of 9.1% in May of 2021 when jobs are available everywhere. It was high under Sparklefart and high under Senile Joe.
    So, instead of worrying about minor things and unconstitutional programs, maybe Senile Joe can be better than Sparklefart and do something useful.
    But I doubt it. Liberals like treating Black people like slaves and having them in the liberal plantation.

    About time we do away with heinous liberal institutional racism!

    Nord should cheer this decision, but he will not.

    “And a Black unemployment rate of 9.1% in May of 2021 when jobs are available everywhere. It was high under Sparklefart and high under Senile Joe.”

    Hey now Mar, be fair on this. That unemployment rate does not include well employed criminals or other jobs not paying taxes. And if the Dem Party did not want these jobs to succeed they wouldn’t have been trying to de-fund police round the nation. So in a way, the Dems have a big win in terms of minority inner city employment.

    Tuerqas, and that is liberal systemic racism at it’s worse.
    Liberals are the biggest racist group of people, even worse that the current day KKK and other white supremacist groups put together.
    Liberal policies have killed thousands of people. How many current day KKK and white supremacists groups killed? Probably less than 50 in a 5 years.
