Is this a surprise? The indians have been getting screwed for centuries. I'm not at all surprised. I think all of the indians should walk on Washington. If we have money to rebuild other country's after we go to war. Buy the way why do we do that, we go there to show how strong we are and try to change things that's none of our concern in the first place. Then we give and spend money we don't have or in this case should be given to those who really deserve it like the indians, I'm one 1/4indian and you know I'm more proud of that then to say I'm an American they way things stand today. Those who say if you don't like it get out well , you really need to know who the hell your talking to before you make a dumb statement. We the indians have the Right to say this only.

Leave it up to the Interior to have an accurate account money that was mismanaged and it will come out to be a failing. This Government needs to step up to the plate and be accounted for its flagrent misuse of authority and of this Trust! This Government needs to get it together or get off the pot.

Until all Indians and their heirs are included in receiving their fair share of so called, "Indian money", (which my mother, a Cherokee, died expecting to receive it "any day"), the Federal Government will continue to use "Indian" assets for the benefit of all others and the Indian will again be left out.

I have a question. Why do we still have a Bureau of Indian Affairs at all?
Didn't we sort of take all their land and dignity over a century ago? Washington needs to decide whether they're going to keep all Native Americans in a pepetual welfare state and treat them as such or give them the dignity of "Nation" status like they had throughout most of the 19th and 20th Centuries (even if we didn't actually recognize the sovereignty of those Nations) and allow them to at least pretend to be free and independent.
