I mean that I have seen the opposite of progress. Native people with formerly proud cultures. Not technologically advanced, sure, but long traditions and ones anyone should be proud to have (or had, past tense, in this case). And these groups appeared completely devastated and exploited.

  From your point of view, maybe. But these aren't museum exhibits. They're people. They want the same sorts of things the rest of us want, and they're willing to make adjustments.

    Exactly. But the things they want seem pretty pretty unobtainable from what I've seen.
