As of 2012 there were 44.5 million blacks. If you add $1 Trillion to the national debt to pay out reparations, that averages just $22,500 per person. If you look at a difference making figure, say $500,000 per person, the cost is over $22 Trillion. This is not possible.
Cash payments are not going to happen.

I say give them the reparation that they were promised at the end of the civil war which was "40 acres and a mule" and only a couple of thousand received it. We have plenty of government land that can be given to them...and the price of a mule is not that much.
In addition it would only be given to those that can trace their linage back to the approximately four million slaves at the end of the civil war.
