Default How much per victim should Reparations be?

With all the talk about Reparations, what sum of money do you think would make you whole for all the chaos inflicted upon us in general? *edit PLEASE read the attachment carefully.

Anyone in the US that is currently, or was recently a slave, should get the median income for each year of their slavery.

I don't want anything from them or anyone else except to be left alone... And we all know that's not likely to happen.

Green living. Greta and AOC approved housing. Consumes no power, no water, has free flowing ventilation, easy egress in case of emergency. Garage free so as to discourage driving. This is the Utopia they want for all of us.

A one way ticket back to africa or where ever the hell they want to go (outside of the US) for each of them will work for me. Make sure they take Orca Winfrey and Whoopi with them, too.

The amount of money over the years I have paid in taxes to support their worthless asses either by welfare or prison costs has to be a lot. Just pay that back to me, no interest it will be a decent amount!

Add to that all the other problems they cause including a lot of my family that got killed in the civil war freeing them, those slugs own a lot. Course they are making the amount owed bigger quickly. So glad I moved out of the city years ago. For some reason they do not like to live up here in the boonies.

I would like the figure over the past 70 years that has been poured into the major cities for housing, medical, job training, small businesses, deficit transportation, and all social programs.

I would estimate at least $20T on the very low side.

When it comes to talk about giving blacks 'reparations',

Its seems as though they may have already been paid....

they were brought to a new & soon to be prosperous country & given a fresh start with a new job, housing, food, clothing to wear, medical care....all in the exchange for unskilled labor.

This new opportunity would prove to be the greatest thing that could have ever happened to their later generations, as many were able to excel & succeed & make millions in sports , music , movies , science & all other industries .


Sure, there were some rough patches when the democrats formed their club & put on their white robes & hoods,
but the Republicans put a stop to that & we have moved way past those days .

Funny how few folks seem to have actually read the first post. I think a starting point would be reimbursment for the family lands taken after the War of Northern Aggresion and given away to others. The others didn't carve it out of wilderness with their bare hands, hand tools and horses like my family did. There should also be a payment for their loss of labor and profit from not being able to farm the lands they lost.
