And, just as an added note - of the 750,000 dollars the tribes send to the state in fuel taxes, ya know how much of that comes back to the tribes for road repair?

Zilch. Nada.

Do you know how much Jackson's food stores sees in state fuels taxes they collect on sales???? Zilch, nada. It's for the roads. That argument is invalid.

Did you know that of all the roads on tribal land in Idaho (over 500 miles on the Sho-Ban's reservation alone) only 43 miles are maintained by the tribe (in this case the Sho-Bans). This is data from the Idaho Transportation Department. Most of that 43 miles is dirt road. None of the other tribes in Idaho do any of their own maintenance.
