even leaving aside issues of descendants etc, @marwilliamson 's promise of $500B for reparations for the (roughly) 37m African-Americans works out to a little over $13k per person.
As far as actual restitution goes, that is absurd.

Most people don't have use for a mule, but a mini-donkey is a wonderful alternative pet

I like this idea. 1. Is would spread people out,there are too many people living in the cities 2. It would generate more tax income in the form of prosperity taxes 3. People that can’t use the land could sell it and make money 4. The Government owns to much of this “free country”

Allocate the parcels by lottery. It would be the first state run lottery ever to result in a net increase in freedom.

Dude, you had the same idea I did. I even looked up the 640 million acre number. The fact that you also thought along the same lines makes me feel brilliant. You da man.

it was 40 acorns and a mole. I'm not sure why everyone thinks it was 40 acres and a mule

So, split that 40 acres between all their descendants? Split the mule too?

That's market mule cost. Bet the government would pay 20 times that per mule.
