I agree, John.   Native people don't receive "free" services, nor are the communal resources available to Native people "hand-outs."   Lower 48 tribes lost almost 99% of their people, too, along with their land.    People who think Native people are "entitled" need to ask whose property they are on.    It takes a lot of entitlement to decimate a race of people and steal everything they own, and that is what entitlement really looks like.    To continue to oppose the miniscule remaining Native population receiving any benefit from the treaties enacted, which a lot of people would like to have happen, and to make themselves a victim because Native people have rights is a profanely malicious attitude.
