Opinion: California should not tax tribal casinos

 printer friendly
"Eight billion dollars a year and no taxes. What a lie on our TV screen. The last official record I read was that the tribes and bands received approximately five billion dollars in California. First, we must remember the tribes and bands in California are Sovereign Nations and are not required to pay a tax but the tribes and bands do pay a fee which has been running at an average of 130 million dollars each year. A few years back the casinos were employing some 41,000 people and there are about 50,000 people employed now."
