And DeBeers wants us to believe love is only shown with a diamond.
Here are some folks whose relatives did hunting and fishing for their living and just maybe the white man changed their way of life,,,,,I could be wrong, just saying the white man may have had something to do with the displacement of the original peoples of North America, just saying of course. Yawn, etc.

Let's be clear as mud on that 43M figure that is being tossed around.
When people talk about those who are considered to be "ON" welfare. They are generally talking about people who are fully supported by SSI, Medicaid and Food Stamps.
It has now been popularized by the pundits to single out the highest figure among the different programs which is Food Stamps and use that to represent the number of Americans on welfare.
Example:
10/15/2012
Total number of Americans on welfare 4,300,000
Total number of Americans on food stamps 46,700,000
Total number of Americans on unemployment insurance 5,600,000
Percent of the US population on welfare 4.1 %
Welfare Statistics | Statistic Brain
Note that the percent of the population on welfare is 4.1%.
Important to note that working people can receive food stamps. They haven't necessarily "given up" they are just low wage earners.
A family of 3 is eligible at a gross income of 24k per year.
Not trying to be overly pedantic here just inserting some perspective.
