San Francisco's proposed reparation payments to eligible Black residents could cost the city over $100 billion dollars, the New York Times reported Friday.

San Francisco's African American Reparations Advisory Committee unveiled its recommendation in January, arguing that the city owed millions of dollars in compensation to Black residents for decades of discrimination.

"The $5 million payments could top $100 billion — many times the $14 billion annual budget in San Francisco — and London Breed, the city’s mayor, has not committed to cash reparations," the Times said.

If they pay them that much money, they’ll be rich! They it’ll be OK to tax the hell out of them.

California’s long history as a cotton-growing Slave State is finally being rectified. All of the many California residents whose ancestors have been living in the state for 150+ years will now have to pay for their crimes.

As American consumers have said since the late 1950s:

Charge it.
Buy now, pay later.

They’ll ask the Feds for the moolah, and this being a Dem administration, they’ll fire up the money printers, ship the newly minted dollars off in 747s - and give each black the $1.5 million each and more they’re asking for.

When Weimar-republic level inflation hits, Republicans will be blamed and the media, with a straight face, will report exactly that.

How to drive every producer of goods,capital,and services out of California, and replace them with the consumers of goods, capital, and services into California.

Too funny.

Give them the money if they renounce their citizenship and permanently leave America with no possibility of returning.

I wonder how a black resident becomes “eligible.”

And exactly how “black” do you have to be? Can you “identify” as “black”?

So many questions.

In a few years…. Using one of those fast talking auctioneers chants,

The property defined as the City of San Francisco, it is being sold “As Is”

“I have 100 on my right…. One Hundred dollar bid, do I have $125? Now One Hundred twenty-five dollar bid, will you give me $150?" “No one bid $150?”

“ Going once, going twice, sold for $125 to the old lady on the left who looks like Nancy Pelosi”

Whew, and here I thought it would be wealthy white people. Sounds like everyone on the hook will have a Spanish surname.

That means there’s 20,000 black ppl in SF. I heard there were 50,000 tho, which means it’ll top $250,000,000,000.
