No one alive has experienced what you just described, and as far as the federal government exceeding it's powers, everyone has experienced that. Forcing citizens to pay tax money for reparations would just be another example of the government exceeding that power.

If you want to talk about slavery in the US in modern times, it is most often perpetrated by illegal immigrants against other illegal immigrants.

The generation of black people born around 1840 spent the prime years of their lives as slaves, and then experienced freedom, and with that experienced the federal government vastly exceeding a strict construction of its Article 1 section 8 powers.

The federal government built them schools.
the federal government decided the times and places of their state-level elections.
the federal government commandeered some of their homes and put troops inside.

They experienced these things and slavery in one lifetime.

Many of them left behind commentaries on this. Even the ones who couldn't read and write. scholars and mid-level government clerks from all over interviewed them, and compiled the results. If you can find one that thinks slavery, which they experienced, is comparable to federal government overreach, which they also experienced, let me know.

If you can talk to any of them you need a shrink or a 900 number.
