That work has been done by economists, are you aware of that?1. The way the insurance worked for slaves would take more than an accountant to decide on value and interest. It takes interpretation of law to decide.
And you yourself have stated how it could be done. So that’s one way. But it’s not an interpretation, since we have actual numbers.
We can estimate the value of other things dating back that far. So we also can calculate the work they did and the value it had. We know what the policies did and didn’t do to whites. Hence the Headright system, we know the value of that as well.This is different than an accountant simply counting interest on an easy-to-define policy.
Sir, every can be measured and calculated. Everything!!!! You yourself admitted that "accountants simply count interest on an easy-to-define policy".
And I posted a number of historical incidents that happened to ADOS, which can be traced easily.
"As a result, nearly all enslaved Africans ended up in the hands of the richest Virginians. These planters paid in tobacco and claimed headrights, or land grants, of fifty acres each on each of them. (The headright system awarded land to anyone who paid the cost of transporting an indentured servant to the colony and was extended to cover enslaved laborers. Headrights for enslaved laborers were terminated in 1699.)
Though the number of enslaved Africans arriving in Virginia increased under the Royal African Company, it remained relatively small. In the years prior to 1670, only two to three ships, carrying perhaps 200 to 300 captives each, arrived. In the following decade, that tripled to between seven and nine arrivals, totaling as many as 2,000 enslaved captives. Between 1681 and 1690, about eleven ships carrying approximately 3,200 enslaved Africans landed in Virginia. That number decreased the following decade to five ships carrying about 1,100 enslaved Africans, probably related to King William’s War (1689–1697) with France."

Almost from the start, investors in the Virginia Company in England were unhappy with the accomplishments of their Jamestown colonists. They therefore sought a new charter, which the king granted in May 1609.

There was something peculiar said during that hearing.I'm not saying that these things are not owed... I'm saying the straightforwardness of the paperwork in the jews case is completely different from the situation with slaves. If the jews relied on getting money based on a calculation of the value of German insurance policies for different aspects of the Holocaust it would be taking much much much longer... the jews would be getting mad about all these "research committees" instead of action
She said we have to "act now".

Germany to give $1.4 billion to Holocaust survivors globally in 2024
The organization that handles claims on behalf of Jews who suffered under the Nazis says that Germany has agreed to extend another $1.4 billion overall for Holocaust survivors around the globe for the coming year.

"The Dutch government eventually made €181.5 million available to compensate the victims and their families."
Restitution
During the Second World War, the property of many Dutch Jews and other Jewish people in the Netherlands was confiscated. In 1990s there was a resurgence of worldwide interest in the issue of Nazi looting and the restitution of financial and other assets.

"The money is the second and last round of payments from $60 million France provided following a 2014 agreement in exchange for recipients relinquishing the right to sue."
"Over all, €35.2 million will be paid to individual claimants, with the rest going to a Jewish trust that will help the poor and keep the memory of the Holocaust alive."
The retrieved assets. Are these given to people who directly or indirectly experienced the holocaust? And have the victims assets been taken in the USA or in a foreign country? Or is it given to the descents?2. Fasho
Something you didn’t do.3. reading
Black Americans aren't upset that Jewish community is receiving this, they are upset because ADOS has been ingnored (benign neglected) for over 140 year. Had ADOS not been ignored, they would not have been upset. Nearly all, if not all will agree that the Jewish community deserves this. But not at the neglect of ADOS.
Why should that be trolling? Your views are a bit odd at times.3. (lol) anybody asking me if im ados is obviously trolling... you just not aware of the context
I have been asked that question as well, and I didn't experience it as trolling.
