We give them reparations daily. Who do you think is crossing our border illegally today?

You're assuming any plan for reparations would include a way to discern who is a descendant of the 388,000 Africans who reached the United States, and realistically it wouldn't. Reparations would be provided to all African-Americans, regardless of whether they descend from those 388,000 or not. So yes, it would likely include some Africans whose ancestors originally landed in the Caribbean or South America.

By 100% of the reparations I mean no other European country, most of which saw a large benefit from African slavery, are paying out reparations to African slaves. So yes, the reparation burden would 100% fall on United States taxpayers.

Most, if not all, of these would have only come to the USA in the last 50 years or so, so there would be records.

Actually, what I'm suggesting is, if we give land reparations, it doesn't really cost us anything
