State of confusion...

The government-appointed panel responsible for determining the amount of reparations San Francisco should provide to its Black residents did not rely on a mathematical formula. Rather, the panel’s 15 members spent the last year and a half studying the city’s history to develop a proposal.
One idea being debated is to provide $5 million each to eligible Black residents. The report by the San Francisco Human Rights Commission’s Reparations Advisory Committee is a comprehensive document that provides a detailed analysis of the history of discrimination against Black residents in San Francisco. The committee studied various forms of discrimination, such as discriminatory housing policies, police brutality, and unequal access to education and employment opportunities.
The report also identified several proposals for reparations that aim to address the historical harm suffered by Black residents. One of the most significant proposals is to provide $5 million each to eligible Black residents. The eligibility criteria include being a current or former San Francisco resident who identifies as Black or African American, and who has experienced or been impacted by the city’s historical discrimination.
Other proposals include providing financial support for educational and job training programs, affordable housing, and healthcare. The report also suggests creating a Truth and Reconciliation Commission to address the city’s history of racial injustice and to promote healing and reconciliation.
The document reads:
“Provide a one-time, lump sum payment of $5 million to each eligible person. Rationale: A lump sum payment would compensate the affected population for the decades of harms that they have experienced, and will redress the economic and opportunity losses that Black San Franciscans have endured, collectively, as the result of both intentional decisions and unintended harms perpetuated by City policy.”

Will taxpayers run even faster to GET OUT ,LOL
That’ll pay a couple months rent in San Francisco.
PS: The reason I put Newsome’s picture up is because he has a state commission studying the same thing that is due to report this July.
Like many lottery winners he’ll be broke and taking welfare under three phony names within a year.
And someone who earned his money and deserved it but then went broke anyway.
“Mike Tyson went broke and filed for bankruptcy in 2003 despite having received over $30 million for several of his fights and $300 million during his career. At the time it was reported that he had approximately $23 million of debt.”
don’t forget to read up....

Kool, maybe they’ll all move there.
For the amount of money we have sent to the Ukraine, we could have given every woman that gave birth last year $30,000.
Ukraine aid = 112 billion
Births per year USA = 3.7 million
112 billion divided by 3.7 million = $30,270.27
That’s a lot of baby formula, if they can manage to find it...
They make out like racism is only found and was only found in the “deep South”. Yet I well remember in the last 60s and early 70s the northern cities were the ones on the nightly news that were in flames.
Will the last person leaving California please turn off the lights ?
I’m not black but I identify as a victim because I identify as a non-binary Mesozoic superbeing enslaved by LRON Hubbard on the planet of Xenu. So I need reperations too.
Given the state of the California power grid, the lights will be out before the last person leaves ... they wont have that task on their plate anymore.
Madness.
When you see a program like this think “slush fund”. If it ever becomes a reality I will predict that there will be very little or very loose record keeping and in a matter of years after millions was paid out no-one will know just who got the money.
They will admit “errors were made” and it was just a “bookkeeping mistake”.
