Casinos weren't something the US gave. Tribes won the right in court (Cabazon, 1987) and Congress answered with IGRA, forcing them to negotiate with states. Customers buying a service isn't restitution. Most revenue goes to a few tribes near big cities while remote ones get little. And casino money often covers treaty-owed health and schools the feds underfund. Keeping gambling tribal is fair, but calling it reparations lets the US off the hook.

Casinos are often one of the most important tribal businesses and they actually employ local people. It’s ruining lives but with some upside. There is no upside to online gambling
