All Arizona gambling is on the Indian Reservations and I go to keep the Indians employed. Work gives dignity to man.
I also consider it my charitable contribution. Afterall I go there knowing I will lose all my money but it will all go to the tribe,it's really helping them too. Once the tribes were very poor,now they have lots of money,food on the table,children who can go to college and so on. What do you think?

I think having more money doesn't really solve anything. The same problems are still going to be there and may even become worse. The United States is the richest nation in the world but we are still morally corrupt compared to some poorer countries.
And I don't know about there, but here in Michigan "tribes" are sometimes composed of people who don't even live on reservations but instead have a certain amount of Indian blood and are thus entitled to share in the proceeds. They may already have a nice job and home. It's really nothing more than big business...a greed grab.
At a past job, I used to sometimes used to install software in the business offices of the casinoes here in Michgan. I know for a fact that the smart ones pay people from Las Vegas or Atlantic City to essentially come in and run the casino's for them. So your donations are going to enrich them also. Wouldn't a better solution be to give your money directly to a poor Indian if you're concerned about that?
