Native American Casinos

In Oklahoma, this is starting to become a pretty major issue with some folks. Native American run Casinos have really hit horse tracks, etc. in the pocketbook. Horse tracks are traditionally a huge source of tax revenue while NA Casinos do pay taxes according to current compacts but they're at like half the rate of what a non NA business would have to pay. They also have games that the horse tracks can't have.

What do ya'll think of these institutions? Are they great for the tribes or are they a detriment to rural American where they are usually located?
