The article posted doesn't say anything about reparations. Maybe that's on purpose, or maybe whomever is doing this thinks that black people have it the worst in that city and chose them as the target demographic for their experiment. Maybe it's both, or neither, I don't know.

DNA test to show lineage. No test, no money. Fairly easy.

?will give low-income families of color in the city $500 per month with no rules on how they can spend it.?

Yay! Free money for crack, meth, and malt liquor.

In the mean time, I ain't got my stimuli

Here are liberals views on black people. Pay close attention to their nuances. Discuss in a civil manner post video.https://youtu.be/yW2LpFkVfYk

Universal income like any other welfare based income is always going to work for some and help them out of poverty and it is always going to be a waste of time, money and effort for others. In the end, not sure how any of these systems would pan out over the long run as in if you give someone a basic living wage do other welfare options such as rent assistance or ebt $$ then eventually fade out and if you are giving money to people for rent, food and other things and you then exchange that for a UBI does it really matter in the end?
