    wow so should i get a broom and some drywall and fix that dudes house cause
    he likes to get drunk and trash it?

    my town got a new school and if we burnt it down there would be no new
    school for a very very long time. so dont wreck your stuff and expect more
    to come

    the best is the guy who cant figure out why the mine doesnt want to employ
    violent, pyromaniac drug addicts to work

    – and look at the entilitment of that guy, why should he or his people get
    anything from that mine?

    “first nations” people were not the first in north america and killed off
    the old inhabitants so it is not there land?

    You have to be responsible for yourselves. Why bear some many children?
    Did you think of how you are going to be able to feed all those children?
    Use birth control. HELP YOURSELVES! Take carpentry lessons, fix your own
    problems. That’s what everyone does. Go back to pemmican. It is healthier
    than the white man’s food. White man’s food is not even healthy for the
    white man. Eat the animals that walk on your land. They are healthier to
    eat. Grow gardens. Get someone in the Fed. Gov’t to help you learn to be
    responsible for you. No one can help you, but yourselves. YOU MUST HELP
    YOURSELF!?

    I thought northern Canada seemed like a nice place to visit. But, I’d guess
    not!?

    Straight Oxycontin pills have zero effect on me, not even as a pain killer,
    zero effect. Lucky me I guess. The solution for these remote and forgotten
    Canadian reservations is to inject mass amount of cash into them, money
    always solves the biggest problems in areas like these, not sure why the
    Canadian government hasn’t done that yet, lack of money and resources is
    what seems to be driving these communities into further poverty, crime and
    despair.?

    Hobemma is the epitome of what you just said

  • jtgober87 says:

    The numbers they are throwing out (out of their asses) are so goddamn
    wrong.

  • jethro035181 says:

    zero sense of personal responsibility, arson, self addiction,
    violence….why should anyone care if they don’t care about themselves

  • grimjaur86 says:

    don`t you think it could be vice versa? i`m quite sure. you`re being
    ignorant.

  • Leanne Strong says:

    I now realize how good I’ve got it. I grew up in an affluent Rochester, NY
    suburb that so far seems barely affected by the recession. We have a
    shopping mall, a ton of stores that aren’t in the mall, zillion
    restaurants, a spa, a couple of golf courses, a library, a great school
    district, a lot of housing developments, and many beautiful homes.

    ‘Give a man a fish, and he’ll eat for a day, teach a man to fish and he’ll
    eat for a lifetime.’ Canada needs to stop giving tax breaks and stop
    handing out welfare to addicts. Welfare should come with a mandatory drug
    test.

  • Novaa Landis says:

    i noticed that as well. like “hey a pill is $400 now” so basically 20
    houses need to be robbed instead of 2 (-_____-)

  • Novaa Landis says:

    i pray that the lady in the first video that was in detox with 4 children
    has kept herself clean. does anyone know any information?

  • axismundie says:

    Not sure what you didn’t understand in my reply… Yes, Florida is a state.
    No, it does not have free health care. (This was said in response to the
    comment that Florida, tried drug testing and it cost them more than it
    saved them. Yes, Canada is a country. Yes, every province in it has free
    health care. My point being there’s a difference, which would possible
    result in a different outcome…

  • Dracovoid says:

  • Hadogei123456789 says:

    Yeah well, I doubt the Australian government takes care of your Aborigines.
    Not that the Canadian government takes care of ours, but you can’t
    criticize blindly.
