...report shows that from 1993 to 2001, overall federal funding for key Native American programs climbed from $5.3 billion to $9.4 billion--a 77% increase. Government and congressional officials say they have no idea how much of that went to tribes with successful casinos.

...Feel bad, if you wish, for young Marco Minuto—if only for his first misadventure. We weren’t there, and can’t know for sure what “Santa” actually promised him. Some of his actions then and since would suggest he wasn’t promised anything at all, that Marco is in fact the type who would have tried to pull the wool over Santa’s eyes. And we know that naughty little boys who try that stuff get nothing but coal...
