Altruism is never about the "helped". It is always about the helper. And its goals are not beneficial for mankind.

God has nothing to do with it. If we mortals don't get our act together we will suffer and die. Period. We are the generators and negation of our own suffering.

The truth is we stole, killed and beat these great people with lies, religion and brute force into what they are today. Both conservative/liberal, republican and democrat keep treating them like crap. Thankfully many of them are saying screw you to us and getting back on their feet.

So many things I want to say about this issue but I'll just keep it to what I said. Thanks for posting the video.

[bakukenshin]

I think that's exactly the point. First we beat them into a corner and boxed them into some of the most inhospitable regions of the nation and then we "supposedly" reformed our treatment of them to try and help the indians because they didn't have the resources to help themselves. The reason was that we denied them the resources, but that's conveniently overlooked. And now that they are trying to stand on their own, the gov can only interfere. We should believe in freedom and let them be free.

@bakukenshin Just wait. Karma has arrived to bite the very ancestors of a generation of American minions that were sent out to chase these people off of their lands and corral them onto reservations. Guess what is happening now to millions of ancestral Americans and their homes? Foreclosure! What goes around, comes around.

[bakukenshin]

@principles101 Karma has nothing to do with it. Bad financial decisions entrap many Native Americans. Bad financial decisions entrap all Americans. The principle is that government decisions are bad financial decisions by definition. The reason being that government decisions preempt the choices that individuals would make for themselves to optimize their survival. This means that someone who has less of an idea what you need to survive than you do, has more power to make your decisions.

"Altruism is never about the "helped". It is always about the helper. And its goals are not beneficial for mankind."

I don't believe that. But we will probably agree that it based on intent. When you base "help" on an educated, wise informed intent you wont have issues like this. This reporter is a against government helping anyway. But using the Native Americans as an example is ridiculous. And the Indians are being used as stooges again for other debates going on in this country.

[bakukenshin]

Whether or not you as an individual choose to dedicate your assets to some charitable institution is your right and choice. Whenever people are forced to help and forced to be helped, then you get an inversion of human dignity and virtue. Your intent doesn't matter. Educated immorality is just as immoral as uneducated immorality. The issue is if you have the right to order people around. I recommend you also look into Dambisa Moyo's book on negative effects of Aid in Africa, "Dead Aid".

Interesting, the Choktaw actually have their own country with a libertarian-esque spin, and they are prospering, whereas the Lakota live off government welfare and are dying . . . Gee, I wonder if there is a lesson to be learned here . . .

@MrDemonhunter12 - hhahahahahaha. My cousin's video has more views than all your gay little videos combined. Hey hey, i know, maybe if you sucked balls instead of kicked them you might have a thousand or two more views, LOL. Retards like you make me laugh and pity this world. Thanks, you're the reason the planet is shit, how does that make you feel?

nevermind you're probably too fucked in the head to understand what i mean by that... well have a nice life, don't get hit by a train now, ya hear?

[1androo2]

@MrDemonhunter12 - punctuation is used so that people can read and understand what youre saying instead of sounding like a total fuckin retard. I really see no point in attacking people's videos, so if you wanna bitch about my dead cousin's quad go for it. JUST USE SOME FUCKING PUNCTUATION

[1androo2]

@MrDemonhunter12 - use some GOD DAMN PUNCTUATION

[TheLaura1655]

Why should those people have to do that terrible soul-destroying work,when you think of how they used to live off the land. That was their choice and it was taken away from them. Time we all woke up to what democracy really means.

[selenadelos]

@selenadelos the Wasichu are going to consume them selves as was long ago predicted, all Europeans do is consume everyone and everything in their path, its even in your nations Christian religion to brutalize and try to inflict fear guilt and shame as a tool to consume other peoples souls to the horde.

Such unnatural disconnected unholy peoples and the ways they feed on others should not be allowed to prosper thus Karma, and personally I think The Great Spirit agrees with me 

[selenadelos]

@bakukenshin I live it I am Lakota and from the rez, we were and certainly as hell would have thrived with no help nor influence from whites much less the obvious hateful deeds and certainly your Churches supported are equal with the government in these crimes

Next yes it is Karmic America n Europe are done and The Creator has turned on this people at last, declining birth rates,abortion, drug abuse, wars, debt, blind leadership, greedy, unnatural people, disconnected, lost,
