Barack Obama traveled to a Native American reservation in North Dakota, his first visit as US president to "Indian Country," where he focused Friday on education and economic development.
The president, accompanied by First Lady Michelle Obama, visited the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe reservation in the central far northern state.
The Sioux, which include the Lakota and Dakota nations, are the people of Sitting Bull, the chief famous for his victory over the US cavalry in the 1876 Battle of Little Bighorn. (AFP)

Indians don't like to work. They live off of us working folks and always have.
Even when we gave them tools to work the land, they hired the white guys to do the work.

I had a wonderful, elderly Seneca Indian teach me Indian Beadwork. She said the children are not disciplined and that any that grow up to be decent go to Canada.
To: Sacajaweau
Living next door to a sympathetic settler society does change things for the Indians and not always for the good. If they had to be living like nomads in a pristine wilderness, they would have to know the virtues of work, perseverance, etc. But hypotheticals aside that is where they are. Ultimately faith in God is what they need, same as the rest of mankind.

Chief running mouth.
I wonder what he had to say about how uncontrolled immigration was helping native Americans.
To: Sacajaweau
My Grandfather—an old Wyoming rancher— had little use for Indians. he said all the good Indians were dead—they fought for their land and died in battle—only the cowards and culls went on the reservations to produce the ones we see today. Still, that was along time ago. The dependency on the reservation did a lot to kill their spirit—no wonder they turned to drink. This doesn’t count all Native People—I know many tribes who have done well—The Papagos, the Choctaw, Seneca, but they did it without the Government.
