This idea is one I can support. I'd gladly have increased taxes to cover the 100 trillion for them to form their own country.
I wonder what the Native Americans would pay for everybody to GTFO?

Yeah, I'm old. About 90% of pop culture celebrities brought up on this board require a google search.

The answer is not "O" and it is not a trillion dollars.
I don't even know if it can be done because to give a meaningful amount, it would be a large number. There are 45,000,000 blacks, and I assume 40,000,000 would be covered. If you spend $450 billion, then they would only receive $10,000 each. I don't see us affording any more. So, it may be that reparations are unworkable.

You had me for a second - I wondered "did I type it that way?" I really didn't mean to get so wound up yesterday. I forgot to take my medicine. But, I'm not changing my belief.

Nothing much. Their livelihood depends on tax dollars.

No one enslaved then is still alive, nor are any of those who owned, bought, sold, or traded slaves.
Deal with it.
Deal with it.

doesn't do justice for how stupidly funny what you said is. The day any type of reparations for black people become even remotely a possibility, a civil war will break out. Hopefully Texas becomes their own country and i'll move there if LA doesn't get to join them.

I need to do some research and see if any of my ancestors were sold as part of the Irish Slave Trade in the 1600's. Maybe I can get some money from England.

Maybe when they freed the slaves a program could have been set up to send former slaves back to Africa.
Oh wait they already did that. Many of the people that returned ended up owning slaves in Africa.
The idea of reparations is comical. If the government gave every slave decendent $10k someone would say it isn't enough. That number is impossible to quantify.
So hypothetical they did pay out, what's to stop the decendents of the Chinese railroad workers from wanting money. Other wronged groups would pop up. It would just keep growing.
Also, where does this money come from? America is already in debt, and is currently cutting funding from things like education and biomedical research.
