$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'M')incaye got to come to the states, and that has started these visits. He said some of the foreigners are so nice that even when you're driving...you just stop by their houses and you go to one of the openings in their walls...and he said, "They just open it for you, and they start giving you food." and it's already hot, and it's already cooked and stuff." He said, "I see those foreigners very, very well."

When Mincaye came back from the states the first time...he told the people that the foreigners are really big and fat...because even when they go walking, they don't move their feet. They just get on the trail and the trail moves. Well, Ompodae, his wife, said, "Oh, you're talking wild." Mincaye just kept saying, "That's why all the foreigners are fat.They don't walk. They don't climb. They don't make gardens."

When they got to that one...Ompodae, she just said, "Well, how are they gonna live then?". Mincaye said, "They have these big food houses." And he said, "There's just piles of food." First, there's these young people...and they're standing at the place where you go out. And you smile as big as you can..." and he said, "They pretend like they're not seeing you. Then after a while - they look at you, and they smile." And he said, "When they smile, boom...you can just go and take all the food with you." I said, "Well, it's kind of like that." So I took out my credit card and said..."First you have to give them something like this." Mincaye looked at them and smiled. "They just give it right back to you."

Ompodae started gripping at me, she said "Babae, what do you mean sending Mincaye back here? He was so fat that whenever I'd say...Mincaye go out and bring some meat back for me..." she said, he'd just go out and find a tree, and he'd just sleep-.


Mincaye is a native from the Amazon. This is from the movie "End of the Spear", someone talks about the real character behind the movie. Wonder what Mincaye would say if he knew the truth about these strangers that have so much but don't share. Also - what would this "naive" man say if he would see our poisonous farms, poisonous food, rivers, air, giant cities and the homeless. What about the "financial system" ? That would be the end of it.

I also recommend the movie "The Emerald Forest" - based on a true story.
More movies: "Walkabout", "A far off place", "Into the West", "Dreamkeeper", "500 Nations", "Amazon with Bruce Parry", "Dances with wolves", "Avatar". These last 2 - everyone knows them I think. They are also based on true stories:

One day there will be so many houses, that people will be bored and will go live in tents. "Why are you living in tents ? Are there not enough homes ?" "Yes there are, but we play this Economy game". Now it's "Crisis" time !Too many houses! Yes, we are insane!
