Why doesn't GW Bush help Native Americans?

On the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota the Native Americans have the highest rate of unemployment in the nation, close to 80%. Yet, the Bureau of Native American Affairs continues to lease land to oil companies, coal companies and other energy companies that refuse to hire the Native Americans on whose land they are using. Pennsylvania Coal pays a Native American man $1 per ton that they shovel by hand, while an illegal alien using a skip-loader to load a truck gets $24 per hour and the U.S. government is doing nothing to stop these practices except stealing the monies that were supposed to accrue since they were placed on reservations in the first place.

What did you expect?|||Dude, Georgie Bush only wants to help his personal friends and rich republican campaign contributors. Oh, and lobbyists.|||when you state your sources ill think about answering.|||I don%26#039;t think that is true and is part of the hysterical political rhetoric that people spout that is so far out there. If anything the Fed Government has done too much and have turned reservations into welfare havens where people do not work. The only way to make it in America is to get out there, get involved in mainstream America and stop buying into the hate mongering that is done by activists who gain power only by keeping people down. I am an immigrant, 2nd generation, and we take advantage of what is available, went to school on student loans, borrowed money to start businesses. Stop believing that there is some conspiracy of people who are keeping you down. You are keeping you down. I would be fascinated to know how the gambling thing has worked out and where does the money go. How is that Native American?|||Hey Chief, how many times are you going to ask for help then cry and moan about it? You are getting it back in your casinos.

Most of the Native American tribes that have high alcoholism problems do so because the government has replaced the parents.|||BUDDY, I THINK YOU ARE FULL OF IT, THE AMERICAN INDIAN HAS THE HIGHEST CAPITAL WEALTH IN THE LAND AND DON%26#039;T PAY TAXES. JUST REMEMBER THAT THERE ARE BUMS EVERYWHERE.|||Its not just Native Americans that Bush dont help its Africa Americans to ita so hard to find jobs and housing its ashame i pray to god that the next person that get in that chair will do so much better|||How about instead of whining and moaning about not getting any help, why don%26#039;t you do something to help yourself.

She even then said native americans were their own worse enemies but relieing on others %26amp; not themself. You BROTHER seem to have fallen into that trap.You blame the Goverment for ALL your troubles. What have you done to help yourself or your people. The Custom of the Crows Is no man shall eat until all the Wemen %26amp; Children have been fed. Wemen %26amp; children shall have shelter even if the man has to sleep out side. Of course the man with the skip loader gets more then the man with the shovel He has more invested.. It is up to the Tribal Council to keep track of how much money is paid %26amp; where it goes. If they are not doing their job , Elect someone who will. Blame the right people not those you want revenge on. The WHITEMAN won.
