Liked, because it's a topic worth thinking about, but I'll make one of several arguments on the other side.

Every government that ever existed routinely compels people who did not choose something to pay prices that they did not personally accept. Roads get paved even if we do not drive on them. Wars happen and people kill one another even if we have never even met those people. Governments routinely handle things politically that are beyond the power of courts to hear (and every court in a common or civil law jurisdiction will strive to steer clear of certain limits).

Reparation payments to Japanese and Japanese-Americans interred during WW2 were handled legislatively; that was never a consequence of a lawsuit, but of a law. Similar 'reparations' have been afforded to some tribes, but not others. The power to make such reparations does not come through a court's power to 'punish' or 'digorge benefits' - but from the same power that enables legislatures to create a framework where all of our property can have much value at all.
