San Francisco mayor quietly signs reparations fund that could lead to $5M payments per person
[FoxNews via Insty] The mayor of San Francisco signed an ordinance that creates a "Reparations Fund" that could one day grant each of the city's eligible Black residents up to $5 million in reparations for alleged historic discrimination and displacement.
Surprise! There's no money! When blacks find out, the race riots start: "Where's mah money?!?"
The ordinance, which was passed by the Board of Supervisors earlier this month, was signed by Democrat Mayor Daniel Lurie two days before Christmas. It establishes the legal framework for the fund but does not allocate funds or guarantee payments. The fund can be financed with private donations, foundations and other non-city sources.
Until they don't, then the MAN needs to step up and make non-slaves in a non-slave-state whole!
Any taxpayer-funded reparations payouts would require separate legislation, an identified funding source and mayoral approval. Lurie told Fox News Digital that no taxpayer money would be paid into the potential pot, given the city's $1 billion budget deficit.

"I was elected to drive San Francisco’s recovery, and that’s what I’m focused on every day," Lurie said in a statement to Fox News Digital. "We are not allocating money to this fund — with a historic $1 billion budget deficit, we are going to spend our money on making the city safer and cleaner." # id) ?>

1 The best outcome of this is that they are pandering.

2 Going to provide reparations to all the white male GenZs you actively segregated and discriminated against for the last decade plus? They're living in the present, not something that ended generations ago.

So, IOW, they did absolutely nothing.

5 It's not 'nothing,' Abu; it establishes a degree of 'credibility' for the whole reparations scam - grounds for future riotous demands that government pay up.

6 Boy if that ain't insanity on display, I've never seen it! And I live right next to Portland!
