Well, I thought about it. Most people in the country really don't own the majority of the land and in fact the land they own is actually owned by the bank, or, uh, ahem, bankers, and they pay a mortgage on it.
So most of the real land is owned by the federal government and the major corporations and now banks have a lot that they need to unload. Sure give it back the the Native Americans - Cargill and ADM should give back the great plains and the forestry industry should give their vast tracts to the native americans too. Then let the same companies run it for them, no problem, right?
How about all those forclosures the banks own? Wy not give ikt to the Native Americans and poor people?
Most Americans get along with Native Americans. It seems like only the rich and powerful would object to your plan.
Oil and gas fields? It isn't as if the publicn is amking any money off of those except in Alaska, so give them that too. No problem for the majority of Americans for any of this.
Well, maybe ONE group would have a problem with it - the rich and powerful.
I guess you would sympathize with them, right?
