Who wants to be a millionaire?
San Francisco’s Board of Supervisors just unanimously approved creating a reparations fund for San Francisco’s black residents. This is the latest move in a half-decade of amusingly absurd efforts by the city to create a reparations program. The fund, established this week, will “support and implement” the recommendations of a loony plan that wants to literally cut thousands of $5 million checks.
Apologists online quickly rushed to defend the decision of the board, commenting that this ordinance simply created a fund to collect money without allocating any of it. But this move clearly signals that the city intends to move taxpayer dollars towards the cause of reparations. After all, why go through the hassle of a board vote when a simple GoFundMe could accomplish the same thing?
