Why do you think that tribes should be 'taxed' at a higher rate than a corporation in the state of California?

Name one company in California which doesn't have to also pay federal taxes. State taxes are in addition to the burden put on companies by the federal government.

This 'tax' is not on the tribes, it is on the tribally owned gambling operations. It doesn't even include all the other enterprises; gas stations, cigarette stores, outlet malls.

I can't imagine any company in California that would not like to just pay state corporate taxes. I'm sure the race tracks and card clubs would love such a deal as well.

We elect people to do their job. That is what they're doing. That's the governor, the legislature, and the executive branch of the federal government. We don't let special interests go in and basically write their own deal and try to shove it down everyone's throats, fully knowing that in the end, they won't have to sign any compacts ever again. Unlimited gaming on trust land will be the rule, compacts will last at least a century.

so indians don't deserve any breaks? fine.. they never got any before when we took their land.
