WHERE DID THE WHITE MAN GO WRONG?
The Indian Chief 'Two Eagles' was asked by a white U.S. government
official: "You've observed the white man for 90 years. You've seen his
wars and his technological advances. You've seen his progress, and the
damage he's done."
The Chief nodded in agreement. The official continued: "Considering all
these events, in your opinion, where did
the white man go wrong?"
The Chief stared at the government official for over a minute and then
calmly replied: "When white man find land, Indians running it, no taxes,
no debt, plenty buffalo, plenty beaver, clean water. Women did all the
work, Medicine man free. Indian man spend all day hunting and fishing; all
night having sex."
Then the Chief leaned back and smiled: "Only white man dumb enough to
think he could improve system like that."
