Report: No Math Behind San Francisco’s $5M-per-Person Reparations Proposal
Breitbart ^ | 02/28/2023 | JOEL B. POLLAK

No mathematical calculations justify a San Francisco committee’s recent proposal to provide $5 million in reparations to long-term black residents of the city, according to a report by the Washington Post.

As Breitbart News reported last month, the committee, formed in 2020 amid the Black Lives Matter movement, “proposed that each long-term black resident of the city receive $5 million, though California entered the Union as a free state in 1850.”

The proposal came despite the fact that the city is facing a staggering budget deficit as businesses and residents have fled.

5 MILLION?! HOLY CRAP! Imagine. If every black person in the country gets 5 Million? Of course, if you know nothing about economics, this is very exciting for some.

That is because only whites and Asians know math.

I’m rather surprised it wasn’t 7.5 or 10 million.

5 million a person would be back in the economy in about a month. Most of it spent on Escalades and coke.

Another publicity stunt by the Democrat/Communist Party politburo.

if there was math behind it, they would subtract the price of freedom and voila’, every descendant of slaves owes us money.

let’s call it even.

Note to the reparations committee: Be sure to include an inflation adjustment clause in your wild, insane demands. Because with Bidenflation $5 million won’t be buying what it did a couple of years ago.

And lest you think I’m racist, if each redneck from my area got $5 million, it would be back in the economy in a month, spent on Ford F-150 Raptors, shotguns, and beer.

I have read of one story of one slave brought to California from another state by his owner. None worked or were bought and sold in California - IF (big “IF there) - this story about the court case is true.

How long? One need only walk in and say that he/she meets whatever requirement is stipulated.

For $5M, one will find the necessary paperwork to justify the payout.

Of course there is no “math,” it’s about feelings, not the money . . .

Even the concept is ridiculous. None of these so called “African Americans” have endured what their ancestors went through. They should try with all their worth to make something of themselves. No pride...and they do it to themselves. They think us white guys got here with bags of loot in tow...We’ve worked our butts off...Our ancestors would be proud of us.

Math is “White Supremacy”.
