An old Native Chief sat in his hut on the reservation, smoking a
ceremonial pipe and eyeing two Government officials sent to
interview him.
"Chief Two Eagles" asked one Official, "You have observed the
white
man for 90 years. You've seen his wars and his technological
advances.
You've seen his progress, and the damage he's done."
The Chief nodded in agreement.
The Official continued, "Considering all these events, in your
opinion,
where did the white man go wrong?"
The Chief stared at the Government officials for over a minute and
then
calmly replied, "When white man found the land, Natives were running
it"
"No taxes." "No debt." "Plenty buffalo." "Plenty beaver." "Women did
all
the work." "Medicine man free." "Indian man spent all day hunting
and
fishing." "All night having sex."
Then the Chief leaned back and smiled, "Only white man dumb enough
to
think he could improve system like that.
Funny Email I got, just thought I'd pass it on.
