Yeah my parents are from one of those formerly poverty stricken places, and there was money, trade, and land ownership. So many people who are living today have experienced their lives improving rapidly within their memory, that it seems ridiculous to claim the opposite.
- watwut 8y agoYour parents are from "prior to colonization"? That is unlikely. Regardless of original claim of before colonization, your parents might see end of it.

- iguy 8y agoSure, but "money, trade, and land ownership" were common in lots of places, long long before Europeans showed up. I mean we have Sumerian tax records!
