Column: Tribe's Kansas casino just 'pocket change'

"The Wyandotte Tribe of Oklahoma appears to have backup sources of income that will help keep tribal cupboards from going bare while its 7th Street Casino in Kansas City, Kan., is closed.

The tribe, based in Wyandotte, Okla., recently filed court pleadings that argued lost casino revenues “support a variety of essential tribal governmental services to its members, including housing, education, medical care and public service.”

I'm sure they do. But for this tribe, that lost income might be pocket change."
