I agree and I think any direct reparation payment is a horrible idea, but keep in mind the civil rights era wasn't that long ago. While there aren't any blacks alive today that knew slaves, there are plenty that were alive back in the day where they faced all kinds of hostility just for existing while black.


So now we're moving the goalposts to anyone that was an a-hole to blacks is the reason they get reparations? How about reparations to all the white people who are and were victims of black on white violence? Might need a calculator for that one too

The $200 million figure seems fairer. California should seize all private property and make it happen.

Of course it's not enough. Nothing will ever be enough to satisfy people with that victim mindset. Most will burn thru whatever money is given buying rims and hair extensions, then be worse off than before. Watch it happen.

While there aren't any whites alive today that knew slaves most of us are facing all kinds of hostility now just for existing while white

If you're white, try and avoid going where you'll be the only white. It will burst your bubble.

And they would get docked a day’s pay for “napping on the job” after collapsing of heat stroke.

This includes $2,352 lost per person per year for the over-policing and mass incarceration of black communities


How is it possible to over police? Also, if blacks weren't committing crimes they wouldn't have been incarcerated! Notice, it doesn't say wrongly incarcerated.
Those people are fricking looney.

"Who gives a frick"? We all better, as if this goes through, expect every blue state will be passing similar bills. Detroit is already making noise about Michigan being next, you don't think that Oregon, Seattle, Minn, won't be following in these footsteps? Philly, Chicago? Imagine the competency, or lack of same, involved with all the state agencies created to administer this process? If welfare fraud is running rampant, imagine how much fraud will be involved in who gets how much.

One study put it at a 4 Trillion transfer from whites to blacks. But that was back in 2000. It's probably about 6 Trillion now.

No amount of reparations will ever be enough.
