Where did the white man go wrong?

An old Indian chief sat in his hut on the reservation, smoking a ceremonial
pipe and eyeing two US government officials sent to interview him.

"Chief Two Eagles," asked one official, "You have observed the white man
for 90 years. You've seen his wars and his material wealth. You've seen his
progress, and the damage he's done."

The chief nodded that it was so.

The official continued, "Considering all these events, in your opinion, where
did the white man go wrong?"

The chief stared at the government officials for over a minute and then calmly
replied, "When white man found the land, Indians were running it. No taxes,
no debt, plenty buffalo, plenty beaver, women did all the work, medicine man
free, Indian man spent all day hunting and fishing, all night having sex."

Then the chief leaned back and smiled, "White man dumb enough to think he
could improve system like that!"
