There are quite a number of jobs in South Dakota. The problem is that someone would actually have to WORK if they took one. There are too many folks who want the Govt. handout that they do not have to work for so they continue to v**e for whoever promises to keep giving it to them.

Where did you see white sand beaches or a ski resort. I grew up in Oklahoma and those things did not (and as far as I know) do not exist unless someone built them. You may be correct about the eateries if you only went to the SNOB ones.
