You're absolutely right! I like to say, "they are masters at taking the mountain a pebble at a time." Look back to 1975 and where we are now. The question of equality in the fisheries back then, is now a question of where does it end. The influence in our political system by casino money, coupled with the insulation of "sovereignty" has made for a very powerful minority. A minority that not only steers many political decisions in the state through campaign donations, but carries a very large stick in the way of funding law suits that the State just can't afford. The result is, we now have a separate coalition of nations, within our border who, although small in numbers, are able to dictate policy, law and influence over the entire population of this State.

I'm not Tribal bashing, I support the treaty rights as agreed upon. What I can't agree too is the manipulation of the law and use of financial influence to degrade the rights of our state citizens just because they can.
