Alice Rivlin is an economist and former U. S. Federal Reserve and budget official.

In this excerpt, Rivlin is criticizing the tendency that people have to look for strategies that require very little hard work or sacrifice. The examples she gives are losing weight without dieting and learning a language without sitting down and studying. She makes a parallel between this attitude and government spending, arguing that reducing spending is desirable but no one is willing to sacrifice what is necessary, such as some governmental programs.

How did each group value Minnesota’s natural resources (like land and rivers): Dakota:
Whitepunk [10]

Each group valued Minnesota's natural resources such as land and rivers for a different purpose. The Dakota used natural resources as a source of livelihood.

European Americans, on the other hand, aimed to use Minnesota's natural resources as a way to establish properties on the fertile frontier.

Therefore, the Dakota Indian group had a deep connection to the land of Minnesota, using its resources to support its community through fishing and hunting.

European American settlers, on the other hand, were interested in transforming the land into a state with the implementation of trade and property to generate wealth.

The Dakota were then threatened and forced to cede their Minnesota lands by signing treaties in 1851.
