Descendants of slaves are not the only ones whose ancestors had legit complaints about their treatment in this country. And there are literally millions of people who have experienced mistreatment in the current day. All should be compensated, and here is my proposal:
Offer, a total of $120,000 to anyone who applies for it, spelling out their grievance. No one could be qualified to judge which grievances are legitimate, so all should be accepted. Whether you are a transperson who has been misgendered, or a Hispanic person who was required to learn English as a child in public school, or Native American who lives in Atlanta and is forced to hear the word "Braves," you get the cash.
The first 10K would come in the form of a voucher for travel to and temporary lodging in the country of their choice. If that costs less than 10K, the money reverts back to the treasury. The next 10K is for six months living expenses in that country. After six months, they can collect the 100K by signing away their U.S. Citizenship and agreeing never to return. Biometrics will be used at the border and ports of entry to make sure tha they do not renege. Which will be no hardship, obviously, since the U.S. is the country put them through whatever they complained about on their application.
I believe that having these agrieved people leave would be well worth the 120K. I have rarely heard a person complain about what a horrible country they U.S. is who was not a burden on taxpayers, or simply taking up space and oxygen from people who are productive.
If they change their mind during the six months, they will be declaring that living in the U.S. and being a citizen is worth more than one hundred thousand dollars, and not at all the hardship they thought that it was. People make mistakes. All they need to do is work in the country they chose until they save up the 20K to pay back, and they will be welcomed home. If their friends and family are willing to put up the money, that is fine also. But, I'm guessing such a person is as much a burden on them as on us, so they may be burned out.
