    I concur @Troy

    but I want to say, like many industries the problem is the usa itself. The usa doesn't have a history of managing inudstries well. They let industries fly as long as they make money and can pay for government protection. Googe is part of the digital six. 

    I argue the only answer is alternative networks outside the usa that will free populaces outside the usa. 

    China shows the way as at least china has its own ecosystem.

    The largest non food industry black owned business in harlem is Amsterdam news

    the most well known black designed building in harlem for me is the Renaissance Ballroom, destroyed now, but financed and designed by black people, a black architecture firm and black money.

    @ProfD you forgot to add the rest of my quote :)

    Quote

     that will fit the party of abraham lincoln + the desires of a majority of black people in the usa [not a minority but a majority, the majority of black people in the usa, live in poor black towns absent everything by the state governments machinations, poor urban communities suffocated by their city government]?

    Reparations doesn't fit the party of abraham lincoln position. They feel the black ADOS population isn't on equal footing or empowered in the usa, while the black ados position doesn't need reparations to achieve said equal footing or empowerment. The arty of abraham lincoln believes the usa system is adequate for all  individuals in it, from native americans to the wealthiest whites. 

    Second you can't find a consensus among a majority in the black ADOS populace in the usa to define reparations so legislation can't be introduced for something the people it is to be delivered to don't have a consensus on.  Plus, you can't find a consensus among a majority in the black populace on what exactly needs to be dismantled in the bureaucracy of the usa.

     

    So to that end, ProfD if you live in a black town or live in a black district in a city, why don't you ask Black ados people in the street to explicitly define what reparations legislation will look like, for example 2 million dollars for each black person in the usa, and then also ask what needs to be dismantled in the usa government to lessen or end white supremacy, for example , delete all bequeathed positions in government like deputy mayor. 

     

    In my mind profd the problem isn't that you don't know what you will like reparations or dismantling the tools of white power in government to look like but you are unwilling or able to get consensus among black people. The black elected officials don't seem interested. But you have the ability to communicate in your local community , so do it yourself and then present to your ocal officials: city council representative or house of representatives member or mayor.

    @ProfD One point, it is not a shame that the USA, the current most powerful government in the college of human governments is being run by anyone who wins the president. 

    The USA is like all governments. It has a system. People who live in it. A set of those powerful. A set of those weak. Whomever sits atop the government is warranted.

    The argument that Biden + Schrumpf are embarrassing or sad commentary is incorrect.  In the same way that Netanyahu or Putin or Zi are all warranted, is the same with Biden or Schrumpf beforehand. 

    The younger elected officials are weak. The female elected officials are weak. The non White elected officials are weak. Any complaint people have toward schrumpf or Biden as being unwarranted or unsuitable is an indictment toward the rest in government who may fit the age/philosophical range many seem to want in the usa.
