9. Like I said before
Edited on Wed Feb-13-08 10:56 PM by Arctic Dave
The US gov has never ever had a problem screwing the indigenous people out of everything of value they have ever had. Look at the way they have run the BIA. As soon as they find out there is something on your your lands they want, they will do everything they can to remove you from it. This poll reminds me of the book Catch-22.The Indian guy who can never get any sleep because as soon as he lays down the other guy is pushing him out of the way so he can start digging for treasure.
Me thinks me hears a metaphor.
