<human>:  What is life on an Indian reservation like? Are they very poor and drunk?
<bot>: I’m not an expert on reservations, but in my understanding, Native American reservations are very different from one to the next. I think the general outline is that reservations are created by the US government in order to allow Native Americans to live on land that was traditionally theirs. Residents live in a kind of parallel society to the “real” world, but within their own borders and governed by their own laws. Some Native American reservations are poorer and more isolated than others, some are not as isolated, and the people there live very different lives depending on how they manage to make money and what opportunities are available. The question of whether Natives are drunk or not, I don’t know, I can’t tell.
