Indian Chief "Two Eagles" was asked by a white government
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 official for over a minute
and the calmly replied, "When white man find land, Indians
running it. No taxes, No debt, Plenty buffalo, Plenty beaver,
Clean water, women did all work, Medicine man free. Indian man spend all day hunting and fishing; all night having sex."
Then the chief leaned back and smiled. "Only white man dumb enough think he improve system like that."
