Over the years I have seen a bunch of news stories about attempts to

taken properly, or the women made jewlery out of them. It's just like
drilling wells and providing modern farming tools. They tach them how to
farm, then the next year they just eat the seed corn and let the tools
rust away. Some people don't want a better life, if it means they have
to do anything for themselves. that is why thye live like they do. It's
the same, all over the world. If those people were in the US, they would
be trailer trash. If they wanted a better life, they would move to a
town where they could find work, better food, and a better life. You
just can't help spme people.

Nonsense.


Yawn. Some tribes have repeatedly refused to leave their land
because of tradition. Year after year of drought, they are sent food,
clothes and other things, and do absolutely nothing to improve their
lives, because they are being given what they need to live. Why do you
think it was so easy a couple hundred years ago for the british ships to
trade for a shipload of slaves? Some of the tribes lived by stealing
everything they could from others, instead of working. Before those
ships arrived, they caught and killed as many as they could, except for
a few slaves they kept. When the Europeans arrived with a shipload of
cargo, looking for trade they held them for the ships that followed.
They also captured and sold members of other tribes they didn't like.
Some tribes had a strong work ethic, and some didn't. They got tired of
having what they were working for being stolen at every turn.

I don't care if you believe it or not, but it is the way some people
are, no matter where they come from.
