Thread: Indian Affair bills provide end run around Amnesty issue

The House Joint Resolution (HJR) 46 is the ‘Native American Apology Resolution: Restore Right to Exist’. This is an effort to include another 225+ Indian bands as “right to Existâ€

I think the Indian Nations better shut her up before the American people realize how well they have been taking care of them and start questioning how much each Indian consumes in tax dollars each year and how much they don't pay in.

They have a darn good thing going on and if the American people realized just how good it is, they will get pissed.

Dixie

Yes, you are exactly right, Dixie, and they keep wanting more of those special benefits to be given to them. I read of some tribe in the Southeast where each member receives an incredible income from Casino revenues.

They do get money and it is substantial but to get the money they have to live on the reservation. There are few jobs on the reservations with maybe the exception of the casinos depending on the reservation. This keeps these people in slavery. Mind you, they choose to be on the reservation.

The point with this article if you read Melindas blog is that the secretary of the interior can designate who is an indian tribe, they can designate a group of mexicans, germans, anyone they choose and those people get dual citizenship and full benefits. The government will not have to have an amnesty bill that is voted on by our representatives, they simply change the wording of two or three bills and presto, chango it is done!
