[QUOTE="rod, post: 4315331, member: 5382"] We took land that they had taken from other tribes ---it's called survival of the fittest. Been going on for thousands of years. Native Americans probably have more "freebie" opportunities available to them than any other people in American. If they would get their heads out of the liquor bottle and drug scene they could get a free pass to just about any college. If they live on the rez. (its not like the old westerns) they get free licenses plates for their vehicles, housing, meals, clothes---you name it-they can get it for free. They pay NO taxes on their land and basically don't contribute to society at all. Their mind set is "we owe them" ---does that sound familiar? Most of them get some sort of kickback/profit sharing from their casinos (who also don't pay taxes). This might not be true everywhere but I would bet it is what happens at most Indian casinos. Everyone is free to throw away their money as they see fit but if I was a gambler I would do Vegas over an Indian casino any day or buy scratch off tickets or pull tabs where the money goes to support charitable organizations at least.
