Razer was deeply shocked after talking with Mountain Eagle...
This old man couldn't grasp the ins and outs of Mountain Eagle's business philosophy, but he could clearly feel that Mountain Eagle was sincere, and his intentions were good from the start, with no hint of exploiting the native people.
To be honest, the natives of Alaska are not actually poor; they just can't leave the land where they grew up. Geographical and transportation issues limit them, making their lives seem not so prosperous.
The natives of Alaska are merely called natives; they are nothing like the bottom layer of people in third-world countries.
In fact, Alaska is the state with the third-highest per capita GDP in the United States, exceeding $70,000 per person.
Moreover, the tax environment here is much more lenient than elsewhere; at least there's no property tax here.
Natives can own their land for free and receive annual dividends of over $3,500 from both Native Company and the Alaska Permanent Fund.
