No need to get all snarky.
I was just pointing out that reparations are a fantasy, and the best chance of getting reparations is in a fantasy world. Fantasy games make their own rules. In the real world, a world with a budget and a limited amount of money, reparations wouldn't even get past a committee hearing in the House or Senate.
A state of the United States of America going independent is a completely new thing.
A bunch of them tried it. In February of 1861 the Confederate States of America went independent.
I would think it would be the judicial branch which decides on the reparations. The CSA was a completely different matter. They were not granted independence to right a past wrong. Fantasy or not, this is only way I can see Hawaii ever gaining independence: If the US magnanimously granted it and if it did, reparations would follow. If Hawaii does something similar to the CSA, then I expect it to be cut off totally.
