I hear you. But I don't think American taxpayers should be forced to give our money to either group.

Indians are free to make their own money and improve their conditions, just like anyone else. It's the higher ups in Indian government who force those conditions on their own people. So yes, it's a perfect example of socialism.

True. In this case, they are being held captive more than being independent. Socialism rots the soul.

Exactly. Kept in little rotting boxes for two hundred years in the name of tribal identity.

Generational trauma. Socialist programs created dependency. Familial failings due to cultural dissonance.

They certainly do have the opportunity to move on, just not as easy as it seems.
