Sovereignty has quite a bit to do with the discussion. First: Indian reservations are Sovereign Nations within the U.S.and they reserve the right to govern and...

About snowballing out of control and loss of taxes. Because the state was smart when it okayed Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods the state of CT gets 25% of the...
Ray, Yes, Connecticut was smart in taking a percentage right off the top. If you look at Minnesota, however, the story is totally different. Most big Indian...
