The Natives were given a payout for their land. How they used it and distributed it was left up to them. some of the Elders are so greedy they won't share with the rest of the tribe. That is their buisness. If they screw it up they are like anyone who plays the stock market, you can't go back and ask for your money back (or your land). And the natives got a HELL of a better deal than the lower 48 natives, especially the Cheracee and their land buy out.
