Not to worry. No one will read this on election day. Tribes in Connecticut fork over 25% to the state. That's what Schwarzenegger is aiming for. Some gaming tribes have caved due to POPULAR (as in will of the people) support of Schwarzenegger's actions.

FWI In recent years gaming tribes have spent 120 million in California on gambling amendments and campaign donations to hacks

Thats what is really ticking people off - the Indians actually have their own voice now, and the money to be heard. Didn't used to be that way, and because of it the tribes were screwed out of billions of dollars from the Individual Money Accounts the tribes had that wer administered by the feds...

But oh, now that we have a political voice, gotta stop that real quick... Thats the bottom line. People won't be happy until we are all sitting on the rez, broken spirits, and poor, and quiet... Sad.
