They don't want the world to see them. It is like when the North Koreans only allow foreign reporters to go to the nice parts of town and hide the poverty and hunger that is everywhere else. I read the other day that the UN Commission On Human Rights is about to issue a report in which it says that the way America treats its poor people is a human rights violation. The Native Americans have been treated even worse. America and Americans hate poor people because they are embarrassed that poor people exist in a country as rich as this.
