From an email dated January 29, 2007 titled: On emigration subsidy proposal re: African American community.                         On a personal note, I'd like to say that this specific proposal is mine alone. Although there are many related books and studies. About Black History, Culture, the Black Diaspora etc. To the best of my knowledge it is not a policy or plank of either the libertarian or green parties which I am a progressive alliance candidate for their presidential nomination. See:   www.robertmilnes.net  I have many such ideas which I think one will find among progressive thinkers and theorists. It is a direct consequence of my Amends to Native Americans. And my responses to recent highly publicized efforts by Bono, Gates, Madonna, Jolie & Oprah. Although it deeply concerns all Americans, I have chosen to submit it specifically to the African American community at this time, approaching February, Black History Month. Starting with some stastics: recently the U.S. population reached 300 million. The 2000 U.S. census reports that the Native American/Alaskan population is approx. 1%(.9%) approaching 3 million. African-American about 12% about 35 million. Hispanic-American about 13% about a little more than 35(37) million. Now we take a look at my colony state working theory i.e. a benevolent colony state is one which is mutually beneficial to both the colonists and the host. A viable balanced formula seems to be 1/2 land and population and some formula for economic parity. Case in point: How can the American and Native American populations achieve parity? This represents a huge gap and task. I would propose paring up and down to about 100 million in about 25 years. The most viable methods I came up with would be voluntary emigration with subsidy for Americans and positive eugenics including surrogate motherhood with subsidy for Native Americans. (I discuss the latter in Amends). A tentative, realistic figure I came up with would be about $50,000 with $25,000 at first, $5000/yr. for 5 years. For example, if 25 million black Americans emigrated with subsidy, that represents 1.25 trillion gross in capital. In addition would be various assets, liquidatable or transferable e.g. businesses, real estate, automobiles, furniture, tools, equipment, PSs, stocks, bonds, savings. Also to be considered would be the fact that in most parts of the world, American currency has far greater purchasing power. And of course not to be underestimated, the people as asset. Their skills,experience, education, hopes and dreams etc. Now, just helping the Native American Amends effort & exchange of African Americans the situation of being an alienated, largely impoverished minority in America to a subsidized significant force as it were, could be quite enough. But what if this force were organized, concentrated? e.g. 5 million to Liberia, bolstering the economy, 10 to Nigeria, helping the economy & the civil war and the AIDS effort. 5 million to Haiti. etc. Possibly this could represent a significant step in the overall advancement of blacks in the world. It could also be part of an overall planned phase in of recovery for Native Americans expanding on the present reservation system. I have put a lot of thought into this. I hereby present it to the African American community and all Americans for their consideration.   RWM.
