I saw on the local news that the tulalips borrowed 120 million to build the place. Not sure if they have defaulted, but it sounds like things are tight. I do know they gave alot of money to the Boys and Girls club in tulalip and built a new tribal school. No idea where the rest of the profits from the casino ended up. I do know there was a big stink when the tribes in pierce county gave all thier members a big check from the casino profits and the tulalip tribal members were really giving the tribal leadership an earful about not getting a handout of their own.
The amazing part is when the casino opened the tribe could not get their members to apply for jobs at the casino so the hired a bunch of non tribals and now it is these long time employees that are being given thier walking papers.
