how long will that last?
I figured $11,900/ each based upon 12% of 350 million people. So were somewhere in the ballpark.
I would go for it if they ended all of the war on poverty benefits at the same time.

Your calculator works right except that isn't the way Space Cadet Williamson proposes doling out the $500 billion:
The proposal calls for the creation of a “Reparations Commission” to allocate funds to infrastructure and education initiatives in black neighborhoods. According to Williamson’s campaign, the commission would be run by 50 descendants of slaves with a “scholarly, cultural, or political connection to the issue of reparations.”So she's not proposing to hand out $10 grand to every black person, but rather do it in the form of programs. How that's any different than what's already being now is beyond me. More so, though, the folks who are in favor of reparations for themselves expect to get a check, a very large one at that, not another program.
I'm not in favor of any of this, but we may as well address it properly. She's proposing another government program, but in true leftist fashion, hers is not going to fail where the others did because she's going to do it differently. Just like they say about the Soviet Union, Cuba, and Venezuela. In any event, even if perfectly implemented, it wouldn't matter because, again, people are expecting Ed McMahon, er, Wayne Brady to show up on their doorstep with a big fat reparations check.
Her numbers are just for the bureaucracy to administer the ’help’. Could easily become $200 - 500 billion EVERY YEAR.
When are the new Jordan’s out?
“how long will that last?”
I’ll wager it won’t take more than a week for most of them to piss away their $10K on Weed/Pot, lottery tickets, Malt Liquor, and a new pair of Air Jordan’s.
The rich whites who will have that money in short order are all for this.
