Except unlike UBI, reparations in 2019 doesn't seem all that helpful overall...plus its a completely useless gesture to the vast majority of regular people. Your just gonna make poor white and Hispanic people angrier and black people won't feel like "this is enough to make up for slavery", so they'll just ask for more. You can't put a price tag on something like that.
So yeah, they have no real world applicability. Like, what are you going to do, give every white guy who is 1/4 African-American a fourth of what a regular black guy/girl would get under such a program?
