Um, is that true, because that would actually be brilliant. Make the reparations larger on paper than they actually are. Especially if you deduct it before giving it to the recipients, so they don't spend it before you can get the taxes back. So only 10 thousand per million. heard it was in the 2-3 million range (I didn't pay much attention because it fell into the "never gonna happen" category in my mind. we talk about a lot of ridiculous shit in California, and most of it fizzles out and comes to nothing) that would make it 20 or 30 thousand per person. Less than a years wages for most people. So, unless very well managed, not life changing in the long term.
