Oh, yeah, I'm sure they'd rather live in squalor on the government's
measly stipend that work. You do realize, don't you, that many have
elderly relatives on the reservations, they themselves no nothing else
but those reservations, and that reservations are typically far, far
away from any sort of job centers, don't you?
How about with the amount of money we have tossed at the problem, they
create a job center? Manufacturing jobs. Assembly jobs. Compete with
those z3rd world places taking our jobs. They already live is squalor
according to you, so at least get job skills. What is your solution?
If they are making $33k a year on the government dole, why would they
take a $15 an hour job doing anything?
(kevin cited "The US Census reports that the median income of
households based on a three-year average from 2003-2005 was $33,627.)
Especially if they can live in free housing with free electricity and water.
