ok let's take california numbers. California said 800 Billion, and there are not a lot of black people in Cali. So you are looking at Multi-trillions of reparation money. No polititian is going to vote for that. Where are you going to get the money from. Economically, it will kill the US economy. Plus you think covid scams where bad....the level of scamming would be epic.

Financial reparations will never happen. You think hispanics are gonna go for it? Asians? White people? Arabs? Its good to talk about, but no one is actually willing to pay for it.
Now if you were talking about free or reduced college, low/no income tax, etc. Things like that might be doable. But any kind of payout, wont' actually happen.
