[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 4550108, member: 24302"] That's the issue, is a material life desired if their culture doesn't emphasize such things? No doubt some Native Americans do aspire to a nice home in a nice neighborhood, but many are satisfied to take whatever they can get on their own land rather than venture into what is for many an alien world. That's their decision and trying to force them into the mainstream isn't the white man's to make. With all the constant tugging back and forth to get the Black vote, the Hispanic vote, you never hear much if at all about the Native American vote. Flying under the radar doing your own thing sounds good to me at this point in my life. Not jumping through hoops to afford the next great thing. There are certainly things I would like to have, but just reading about them online is a whole lot cheaper. [/QUOTE]
