Is not running a Casino on a Reservation “self sustaining”? By developing Casinos or any other enterprise on a Rez is exactly why they were put on them to start with. That, and for military protection against greedy white men who loved to shoot them for sport.

“Is not running a Casino on a Reservation “self sustaining”?”

I don’t think that was the point I was making, but let me check...nope, it wasn’t....I was saying that if there are no property taxes paid and the tax burden is NOT the same as, say, Las Vegas is...than it is being subsidized...which is not “self sustaining” by any stretch...
