Now serving #32.

31.  Being recognized as a separate nation is a powerful discentive to leave the reservation.  Anyone who's not a bigot can see that.

But yet they're expected to leave the reservation and moving to where there is work if they don't want to remain poor, and if they don't, they can just suck it.

People who think that way just need to consider the effect of being recognized as a separate nation.

It wouldn't matter to you and the rest of the bootstrappers whether they were in the ghetto or on a reservation;  the poor are expected to suck it up, or just suck on it.

The poor in West Baltimore are of greater concern than the poor of Ghana. Maybe the Indians should assimilate  :hmm:

Was Grab On lying when he suggested that Indians could leave the reservations to improve their lives? :unsure:

Just a variation on a theme.  It's the poor's responsibility to get unpoor with you guys.

So, ideally what would you see done? Lots of infrastructure money pumped into these poor locales? Indians given different more profitable lands?

A Socialist will never accept the idea of personal responsibility. Even in Sweden where there simply is no excuse for being a failure Socialists still cry for more money/effort/attention to poors.

And on that note from Teh Brains, I'm out of here.

We can fling pooh in much more interesting threads.

Oh so there's nothing you'd do then?

Finish your thought.  We are guilty of incorrect thinking.  Grab On and I are asking you to enlighten us, to teach us correct thinking.
