If natives on the res would get an education and then..............a job, they could pay their goddamn utility bill. The self entitlement sickens me.
Where is the rez cops and where is the rez reps that signed treaty for free electricity . Also we need to be personaly responsible to live wihtin our means .
This certainly points up the fact that greed rules in this country. Those who argue that corporations can regulate themsleves are proven absolutely wrong again.
@ IRSFRAUDEXPOSED thats initiative only if you go to the damn you'll see...about 100 yards north of where the actual dam is the crow creek reservation ends and the lower brule reservation begins. the dam itself is not on the crow creek reservation...
I called them all the way from TX!!! haha!! They said, that video was in the summer time we were wearing short sleeve shirts. I said , oh no you did not just lie to me. You were breathing cold air and wearing a coat/long sleeves also.He then said that everyone has power right now that no one...no one is without power. He said if you don't believe it check it out yourself and come up here. uh, I'm leaving to go up there next Monday with supplies ..lol Looks like I'm paying them a visit! LOL
gwaring, doesn't matter who owns the co. White people are given a chance. Pay a partial bill and they leave your electricity on. And they don't disconnect electric meters in any city that I know of in the winter. 50 degrees with wind chill is way to much. Maybe you should try living in those conditions. Or better still, why don't you get them all jobs!!!!
Central Electric totally disgusting. Made me sick to see this. What a disgrace. I guess the cold month rules only applys to the white man. Remember, Central Electric, WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND!!!
Have you been there? Do you know there is an 80% unemployment rate there? Before you judge you should know, there is no where to work for these people. The government has turned their back on them. They have no money to pay these bills. If you've never set foot on a reservation in South Dakota, or anywhere in the USA, you will never understand what this video is REALLY showing. Conditions there are considerably worse than any video can portray.
@gwaring Then perhaps you have a way for them to make money so they can pay their bills. Or better yet, come up with an idea so they don't have to depend on this awful company for their electricity.
how can u allow these kids to freeze to death.. my God then u wonder why Jesus is coming.. reppent or your souls will be dammed forever.. these are God's children.. whats happening here in USA.. lets help our own.. hunger is hunger poverty is poverty .. no one anywhere in the world should suffer like this.. but before we spend millions on death.. by paying to recreate bombs and sending all these soldiers to die.. lets start by helping here in USA.. shameful
If it feels criminal just to watch imagine how it feels when you see your cousins and your aunties on here. I think Rain-in-the-Face, Gall, and Crazy Horse would already have ridden to war on behalf of the women and children. When the time comes I will be there to defend my homeland, the women and the children. I would not be able to look my mother or my grandmother or my great-grandmother or any of my other Ancestors buried in Crow Creek if I knowingly allow this to continue happen.
Doesn't matter who was living in America first we're all human beings that must take care of our species (everyone on mother earth) or face the consequences of not doing so. Why don't you post on the internet any and all phone numbers, toll free numbers, email addresses, home addresses, cell phone numbers and anyway else to contact those of the electric company. If you already have done this let me know and I will call, email them and even send a personal hand written letter to them as well.

The better question is, why don't they pay their electric bills? And before you claim racist, see if the power company is owned by the tribe.

This is absolutly criminal behavior. This electric company should be ashamed of what they are doing to these poor people.
Where is the "CHANGE" that Obama promised? Thank you for uploading this video. Keep up the good work.

Who is the power company behind this, pray tell. This looks like another drive to force residents out of the reservations.
..These people need help..
Whoever is doing this is criminal! Someone must be responsible.
Need to know who the power company is, they are endangering life by doing this...
Who is going to be responsible if someone dies and who is going to face the charges for second degree murder!..
