I don't disagree that to some extent natives do need to move on to get better but that doesn't alter the fact we benefit from a land that was taken from natives and the only way to claim its none of our business is to bugger off back to where ever our fore fathers came from.
Every single group of people had their land taken or fought a war over land at some point. That is the way the world worked at the time.

Our standard of living, house, job and lifestyle were all created and build by the hand of the "evil conquerors". Natives weren't slaves working in our fields or toiling under the whip, they just happened to be on this land before us which for some reason means they own it from now till the end of eternity.
