5. Sometimes I think we should sell it back and become the white tribes of the US.

Out in MN the Shakopee Midewaketon Sioux leadership is doing a lot of good work in the community and has a very progressive agenda. Of course a lot of the money comes from Casinos, but that is irony for you.

When you think of the old ways tribes lived, it really was more in tune with nature.
