I wonder if a similar situation might be applied to other states with large Native populations, like Alaska or New Mexico. Were other reservations/native land trusts improperly dissolved?
No, just do what they did with the Natives in Alaska; incorporate the tribes as tribal corporations, instead of as local govs.Considering just how abusive how many tribal governments are and how many people have abused the difference in jurisdiction to prey upon natives. I honestly think the best thing to do is dissolve all of the reservations. Make them into cities and counties and give said natives full representation that would imply.
Makes the laws governing thier land far harder to abuse, because land then becomes a private corporate property, not a separate jurisdiction.
