Of course thats what its about, economic freedom.
When did I say economic freedom?

And if you knew anything about reservations and Indian gaming, you would know that Indian casinos do not provide "economic freedom" for any but a tiny minority of the population they are supposed to help.

I'd be happier if they were fully integrated into mainstream American society, instead of being marginalized. That has been (and continues to be) the ticket to economic freedom and real success as a group for every single ethnic group that has done well in America.

Well sorry other people having money gets you so butt hurt, but thats their business.
Again, as I said, it's not "their" business for the vast majority of reservation-dwellers who can never hope to own or manage a casino.

OBVIOUSLY economic freedom is integral to freedom, so don't listen to this guy!
Yes, and economic freedom is not gained by isolationism, since it creates a limited market for your products and services.
