Oneidas Lash Out at New York Commercial Casino ‘Bailout’

With a study of New York gaming soon to get under way, and proposed tax cuts for privately owned casinos in the mix, it appears the stage is being set for a clash between the state and its Indian tribes. The Oneidas, owners of Turning Stone (l.), in particular are upset because not only was what they consider their territory invaded by at least one of the new casinos, now the state will cut those casinos a break.
