"Native Wisdom"*
*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, and all night having sex."
Then the Chief leaned back and smiled, "Only white
man dumb enough to think he could improve system like that."
