“Pigford v. Glickman was a class action lawsuit against
the United States #Department-of-Agriculture (the
“USDA”), alleging racial discrimination in its
allocation of farm loans and assistance between 1983 and 1997. The
lawsuit ended with a settlement in which the U.S. government agreed
to pay African American farmers US$50,000 each if they had
attempted to get #USDA help but failed. To date,
almost US$1 billion has been paid or credited to the farmers under
the settlement’s consent decree.”
$1billion dollars handed out, if each was a $50,000 payment ===
20,000 payments plus a payment to a some sort of a #collective farm that Mr and Mrs. Sherrod were
connected with.If you start to look deeper into this, you’ll
discover that it is another #redistribution back door #welfare type scam, like the #Fannie-Mae and Freddie Mac subprime scam, The
subprime was also from law suits over what was called redlining and
Obama as a lawyer sued banks over minorities not getting home
loans. That was what created a large market for “subprime
mortgages” that eventually crashed and burned, and since the
subprime loans were mixed with better loans to offset the *high
risk* of subprime the whole market collapsed along with the
subprime loans. The #subprime scam was to get loans to
“minorities” and this #Pigford scam is just another back door #welfare redistribution scam. Instead of loans that
couldn’t be paid back it was simply cash from the government
that was handed out.
