text: In almost every village I work in there are entry level jobs posted at the village office....unfilled. Why, must be all are working! If they CAN survive, as you say without other peoples money to support them then why dont they? Maybe years and years ago but not anymore. But then not just AK native people used to survive but many other cultures did also and excelled at it. It amazing after 10,000 years being here in Alaska many still use honey buckets........
