In 1999 black farmers won almost 1 billion tax payer dollars, now they are attempting again to drain the tax payers. Will it ever end!
If their suits are successful, the case could cost the government several billion dollars on top of the $980 million in damages already paid under the original settlement.
The suit is the latest development in the federal government's April 1999 settlement of a class-action lawsuit from black farmers who claimed they were systematically denied loans and other aid from local USDA offices
