Oakland Reparations Committee Demands $5 Million Just To Write Plan

Takes money to make money. Cost over-runs assumed.
[ZERO] A 'reparations panel' for Alameda County, whose largest city is Oakland, has demanded $5 million to come up with a plan for reparations over racism, and say it will take them two years to do it.

According to NPR affiliate KQED, the 15-member commission was assembled in March of 2023 to 'study anti-black racism' and come up with a plan to compensate allegedly harmed residents. We should note, the commission was supposed to have completed its work by this July. Instead, as KQED notes, "it has hardly started." (plus the $5 million thing)
