Reparations and the Sin of Being Human

A not very successful 1969 film called “The Magic Christian” satirized the power of money to corrupt by imagining a crazy millionaire (played by Peter Sellers) who manipulates ordinary people to prove his point that everyone has their price.

The 2020 Democrats sound as though they studied this film to develop their social-justice agenda, but if so, no one told them it is satire.

 

Like Democrats, Sir Guy Grand of “The Magic Christian” uses money as a means to entice people to debase themselves. In the climactic scene, he encourages people to jump into a vat of excrement to take advantage of “free money” that has been sprinkled therein.

“Free money” should be the official slogan of whatever feckless Democrat ends up as the party’s nominee against Donald Trump in 2020. Free health care, free college, free food, free immigration — all leading to a logic-free free-for-all of “what’s in it for me?”

Nothing better illustrates the magical thinking of Democratic politics than the idea of paying reparations for slavery more than 150 years after the last slave was liberated by the first Republican president, Abraham Lincoln.:snip:
