From an outsider's view, those Natives got you guys buy the balls. They'd build a casino on the burial grounds if they needed that particular location.
I live right next to where the proposed ring road will come through. Seeing how things ended up in the NW and NE, I have no doubt that it will have a significantly positive impact on property value.

And ya, the Natives do have the community by the short and curlys. I REALLY don't like it, but it's their land, I suppose. I do happen to think that they should have to build (and pay for) their own access road to the casino. And it'll go where we tell them, not necessarily where they'd prefer it.
