Seems like some American Indian tribes are the only ones to benefit from Karma...
1) Suffer from disease and war for hundreds of years due to the white man
2) Get put on reservations
3) Build casinos
4) Tribe becomes billionaires for the rest of eternity
Shouldn't #4 be "Tribal LEADERS become billionaires...."?

Never said each individual does. Don't think a person on this forum would balk at an extra $1200/month that will only increase. Could buy quite the boat for that kind of money.

Not at all. Like I said, it's free money just because of her father's ancestors.

By "billionaires", I meant the collective tribe. Then they share it with anyone who has any ancestry.
