Best idea out there. No more housing shortage, crime in the cities would go down, and there would be more money available to take care of our vets and elderly.

Everyone on board the US gravy train !!!

Can't blame Africa for trying seeing that our government is so happy to hand out hundreds of billions to other countries.

People living in the past have absolutely no future. A simple tell them all no is suffice. This is like my company thinking I’m gonna be paid on a few customers who didn’t pay me 4-5 years ago, it’s not happening, I’ll go find more that’ll pay and pay more.

Whenever democrats are in power the corrupt and indolent of the world come calling with their hands out. We need lucid and rational leadership in the US instead of fuzzy headed leftist leaders afflicted with white guilt.

These African savages can go pound sand along with their Islamic psychopath cousins.

In my opinion, this is why reparations should come from
Fedgov.....they have the financial-power to put trillions into a fund
to pay African Americans, and also all of the wronged Blacks all
over the world that the US had a hand in enslaving.

Surprised they aren’t focusing on the European countries, especially England and Belgium, instead of USA?

Good point, though it's predominantly Portugal and the UK. Here are the countries involved in the Atlantic Slave Trade, and how much responsibility they bear, by the numbers:
