Call me a cynic but somehow I feel that even if you gave $100 trillion, *nothing* would change.
Not the grievance culture, not the demands, not even the standards of living. By the end of the decade, everything would circle back to step 1 and the song and dance would begin again.
Passenger boat rides heading east across the Atlantic are far cheaper.
Adjusted for inflation, we have already given them at least than much. And where has it gone? To the shareholders of Nike and Hennessy.

The truth of the matter is it would be a wealth transfer that would end up as rims, gold chains, and other ridiculous garbage and they would be no better off. No purchase of land, or investment. Just “Chapelle Show” level antics

These people can just go back to Africa if America is so terrible. But there are plenty of decent black people who love this country and work hard for it, like Booker T. Washington and S.B. Fuller, who scolded their fellow black men for whining about racism instead of becoming self-sufficient entrepreneurs and hard workers. Get some of that spirit and the problem is solved. But if you aren't willing to take some initiative, get out of my country. I don't want to pay to support you.

Yeah, honestly the “reparations” should be fixing systemic racism, not just a random pay out that fixes nothing, though I doubt that most of it would be misused, it just wouldn’t have much effect.
