We already got there before you. San Francisco did this years ago (with 
the conclusion that every black person in the city is owed $11 million-- 
an aggregate sum that is 10 times the city's entire annual budget and 
would result in immediate municipal bankruptcy if implemented), and the 
state is currently funding a study of its own to determine what 
fantastical amount needs to be doled out to every slave descendant in a 
state that never had legalized slavery to begin with.

I'd say you have a long way to go to catch up to our lunacy.
