If I were able, I would see to it that Every home had heat of some kind in the winter, be it wood, natural gas or electric. Many people die in the winter due to freezing to death, many even in their own homes because they can't afford to pay for a means of heating their homes. Many of those who die each winter are either the elderly or the very young. There is NO EXCUSE for allowing this to happen. There is a very simple way to solve this problem: Cut the rediculous salaries of ALL politicians, Especially Federal politicians and give that money to those who truely Need and DESERVE it!

given the fact that i know their land is not being returned to them yet and that it should be that still hundreds are freezing and hungry and poverty is something that is with in the control of our federal government i think it only fair that they are helped until such day as their land is returned to them!

If there was an elderly person living near me and I knew they didn't have heat, I would try to get donations to help get them some kind od heat. I find it absolutely horrible that the big electric companies turn off peoples electricity in the winter and the summer. They are heartless and have no soul.

We need no more monuments in the USA.

No one has to live this way when others have so much. People come first, and what country allows it's elderly and children to live in such poor unacceptable conditions. Especially westernised countries, where we are supposed to be civilized. Please help these people, we are all human!!!!

We do not need more monuments in any country where people are dying because of no heat in the home.

Everyone is so concerned with the welfare of everyone in every other country but our own, I think it is time that we take a look around and take care of things that are wrong in our own backyard.

I also have a petition on this site to help the Lakota in Dakota and have continued to do what I can to get help to the people.

No, we do not, we need to sleep knowing that no one in America goes to bed hungry or cold or homeless and until that dream is a fact then no money should leave the USA to help the rest of the world.

As the children & elderly here freeze to death here, we spend amazing amounts of money on the war to kill others. It is imperative to correct this darkness & create warmth for the beautiful Lakota people while stopping funding forthe insideous wars. When one area is out of balance all are out of balance. Please wake up Federal Govt. Realize the time to help is Now. We do not need more monuments we need to heat the Lakota reservation!

The conditions the Lakota people live in is deplorable. Extreme poverty, lack of food in the winter time, inflated prices for substandard groceries, and unreasonable policies by the electrical company are a few of many problems on the reservation. These problems need to be addressed

Please help the Lakota people. WE've taken their lands and freedom, it is the least we can do. We spend so much on warfare , why not on peacefare and goodwill

The world can only be a better place if wealth is shared fairly between those who have and those who haven't any. Everyone is entitled to a warm bed at night and health care if needed. God Bless us all.

WHY IS OUR NATION NOT TAKING CARE OF ALL IT'S CITIZENS? WOULD IT BE BECAUSE WE ARE SO BUSY SENDING AID TO OTHER COUNTRIES THAT SOMETIMES DO NOT EVEN WANT US THERE. AMERICA SHOULD TAKE CARE OF OUR OWN FIRST. CHECK ON THOSE WHO LIVE IN SITUATIONS THAT THEY HAVE NO WAY OF CHANGING. AMERICA SHOULD GET IN THOSE AREAS AND BUILD IT UP, FEED THEM, GET THEM DECENT CLOTHES AND SO FORTH. WE SEND AMERICAN SOLDIERS TO AFRICA AND OTHER COUNTRIES TO HELP BUILD THEM HOUSES, SCHOOLS, WELL WATER PUMPS, ETC. BUT WE DO NOT HELP OUR OWN RIGHT HERE IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. AMERICA IS NEGLECTING ITS POPULAS, THIS NEEDS TO CHANGE BY STARTING WITH THE LAKOTA PEOPLE.

ELDER CRUELTY, CHILD NEGLECT, ABUSE OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE NO DEFENCE. WE HAVE LAWS ON THE BOOKS FORBIDDING SUCH CRIMES. THEN PONDER THIS; AMERICA'S LAW MAKERS, ALL OUR LEADERS, AND ALL THE WAY UP=MAY BE GUILTY OF THESE CRIMES IF THEY KNEW THE LAKOTA PEOPLE WERE LIVING IN THESE CONDITIONS. POSSIBLY OTHER RESERVATIONS ARE JUST AS BAD OFF, SOME AREAS DOWN SOUTH ARE IN NEED. BUT OUR AMERICAN MONEY AND SUPPLIES KEEP GOING OVERSEAS FIRST. WHY?
