Who would get paid?
Who would do the paying?
And how much. Because I guarantee you, nothing would ever be enough. Until they are the royalty and we are the slaves, they will never be satisfied. The slave does not dream of being free: the slave dreams of being master.
“Who would get paid?”
Answer: People that were never slaves.
“Who would do the paying?”
Answer: People that never owned slaves.
But that last question is more interesting. Will the money be appropriated via a special IRS form for Whites only? If so, how do they separate those that came to America after the War Between The States and settled in the North? How do they separate out the Whites that are descendants of those that died to free slaves?
If the money is taken from general tax revenue, then Blacks will be paying too. Or will there be a special racial exception here? Will Hispanics, Indians and Asians be exempt too?
The point to be made here, is the whole idea of reparations is within the original definition of racist. To give a favorable tax exemption based on race is what used to be called reverse discrimination.
