No matter who you are, as long as you're a US citizen, you can move to Nebraska and vote in any governmental election. You can live on the reservation, but unless you have the right fraction of the right race, you can't vote.
Like pretty much every other individual american indian, yes I do. I pay federal taxes, too.
Everyone pays federal taxes. If you're a tribal member, and living on the reservation, I'm pretty sure you're not liable for state tax. At least, you're not in this state.
Think of a reservation as a Dependent Nation within a nation - that's how it is, and that is how it's always been. Constitutionally it has been held up every time.

Apparently, I know Nebraska state taxation laws better than you do, then, because there are very few exemptions for indians there when it comes to state taxes. In order to be exempt from income tax there, the income for an individual indian has to have been earned completely within the reservation boundaries. Income (revenue) for businesses, however, are taxable. Indians there pay licensing and registration fees on vehicles, etc... need I go on?
