To allow the Indians with a means to support a police department, fire department, health care, housing care and elder care. America has a means to do these things through taxes. The Indians do it through gaming, only 39.3% of tribes operate a casino so it is not the norm. The government did not want to take away the identity of the Indian so it has worked very hard to help restore its culture.

What types jobs did native Americans have?

As sovereign political entities outside state jurisdiction can Native American tribes legally operate brothels just as they do casinos?
They probably can but most Native Americans are strong in their beliefs and would not want such attention, they also would not legalize drugs to make money to support their community, Native Americans make a great effort to give back to the surrounding communities that they have casinos located in. They shy away from such things, even casinos are highly controversial among their tribal members. Many Indians that I know are VERY conservative in their beliefs.David, Member of The Pokagon Band of Potawatomi

When did native Americans get permition to gamble?
Native Americans have Indian Reservations. These reservations are considered their own place and they don't have to follow all the rules of the united states, because technically Indian Reservations are their own places. They build casinos because casinos are illegal to have (unless in las vegas) because gamballing is technically illegal, but since its on Indian Reservations, it is allowed. They actually make a ton of money from creating these casinos on their Indian Reservations. Hope I helped answer your question.
Why do Native Americans own casinos?
It was a combination of government policies and treaties that made it possible for Native Americans to have their own land, government and constitution on what is know as reservations, casinos offer federally recognized tribes to open Indian gaming so that they have a means to support themselves and to provide for their community with health care, housing law enforcement etc... it replaces normal government taxes that most states and the United states use to support its community. Without taxes America would not have schools, police, fire, medicare etc...David, Member of The Pokagon Band of Potawatomi
What is a native American reservation?
An Indian reservation is land given to Native Americans from the government. Reservations are managed by the Department of the Interior's Bureau of Indian Affairs. There are 310 reservations in the United States. Because they have limited laws, many Native Americans place casinos on their reservations to attract tourists and increase revenue.
