  • Pine Ridge is the POOREST reservation in this country AND one of the top three POOREST COMMUNITIES in this country.
  • It is not “handouts” when the government pays (what little they pay, mind you) for health-care etc. to the reservations. IT’S A TINY FRACTION OF WHAT YOU OWE FOR THE VAST AMOUNTS OF LAND YOU HAVE TAKEN OVER.
  • Yes, many people are “forced” to stay there. And those who have left struggle off the reservation too.
  • No. No one outside of corrupt tribal government officials has “more than most Americans” on Pine Ridge. Or any reservation for that matter.
