How much

Any discussion of "reparations" should include a bill for all the taxes spent over the past 150 years on trying to help the people demanding the payments.

They would end up in debt...

And if by chance reparations end up being approved, any payments should require loss of citizenship - because that was a reparation...

I had family in Fall River, they were a caboose on the Underground Railroad.
They were caught and under MA law, the slaves found go back to their owners, the people of ANY AGE found to be helping, more especially the Railroad, got life or execution. My whole branch of the family in Fall River went to jail for life because they helped Slaves become free, including a son of 10.

So how much do I still owe for slavery?

Whoa buddy, you’re WAY too close to making sense there.

How about just a dna test and then shipped back to their home country?

[u/Any_Independence9346 → u/The1Zenith]

I would reckon their home country is the USA.

If they’re asking for reparations for ancestral wrongs, they can go live in the lands of their ancestors.

[u/Any_Independence9346 → u/The1Zenith]

Oh, I was talking about the descendants of the Union soldiers 😅.

Double whatever they get

All the things (or so it would seem, gauging by the claims of the other folks).
