Take a number and get in line, I am pretty sure the Netherlands reparations are pretty far down on the list.

Unless you count the massive deaths from leaded fuels, forever chemicals, micro plastics, etc. that the US invented and then proliferated knowing of the horrors they would bring. To top it off when they were confronted with the truth they did everything in their power to ignore, deceive, and then lie about it.

Damn, well maybe you aren't that far down the line. I am pretty sure reparations would be in the hundreds of trillions for all the damaged caused which is far more than the US has.

I suppose the best solution would be to just dissolve the US at this point.

Agreed. Experiment over. Return ownership back to the English. Even that would be better then what is has become.
