| Publisher Description: Indian Gaming Business wrote, "Class Act, Gary Green has brought Las Vegas flamboyance─and big profits to Indian Country." Casino City Times called him "The Donald Trump of Indian Casinos" and in fact he is a former Trump Vice-President. How did these casinos come into being? Are the games "legitimate"? Can players win? What have Donald Trump, Caesar's Place, MGM, and Steve Wynn done with or about Indian Casinos? How is the money made and who gets it? What role do non-Indian entrepreneurs play in developing and operating these casinos? Is there organized crime? How are these casinos managed? Is there investment opportunity? Do the states have any recourse, control, or ability to tax? Do these casinos solve or provide retribution for the poverty, neargenocide, and abuse Native Americans have suffered since Europeans arrived? |
