Now black Californians want 200 million apiece in reparations

Soothfast,
we started out in a "200 million apiece in reparations" thread, and you so smoothly and easily converted it
to a "GOP bad" thread. Clever, very nice deflection. What happened to "Orange bad"? Throw that in too!

Now, any guess who wants $200 million per person in reparations...? Come on, you can do it.

Just because some nutjob wants something doesn't mean you should start blaming the government.

The four economic consultants calculated that each Black Californian who lived in the state between 1933 and 1977 experienced a “housing wealth gap” of $223,239, or $5,074 for each year in the period. The experts said that number — which is the difference between the average value of all homes in California and the value of Black-owned homes — could be considered for reparations.

200,000 bucks for each Black person who personally lived in CA since 1933 (these people would be 90 today) is a big difference from 200 MILLION dollars for EVERY Black person in the State!

Another part of the reparations recommendations:

For another example of injustice, mass incarceration, the consultants calculated potential income lost by incarcerated Black Californians from 1971, the beginning of then-President Richard Nixon’s announced “War on Drugs,” until today.

Without discussing guilt or innocence, the economic consultants estimated that incarcerated Black residents were out $124,678, or $2,494 a year, for unpaid prison labor and years of lost income.

So every Black person WHO WAS IN PRISON FROM 1971 UNTIL TODAY (50 years+ inside!) might get a hundred thousand bucks for that. That's not all Black people!
