[QUOTE="TeamTomlyn, post: 4201287, member: 46099"] I can only speak for the Cherokee tribe, but a majority of benefits/social welfare is based on race, where you live and your household (tribal and non tribal) income. If your ancestors aren't on "The Rolls" you don't qualify to be a tribal member. Tribal members must reside within the boundaries of their respective tribe for most benefits. Then ultimately a welfare level income cap on most benefits. There are wonderful and much needed social welfares for tribal members here in OK, but I haven't seen many programs that reach out and benefit the active working class. The tribes also create a lot of jobs within these programs; so theres that. Regardless a tax system based on race should never be an accepted practice. [/QUOTE]
