No, it is not clear. If the White Mesa Utes are members of the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe - as stated in the website, and as you acknowledge they are - then why should the tribal council not be held accountable for the condition of the White Mesa Utes? If they say that the money (and the employment) cannot cross state lines, then they are simply lying - again a problem with the tribal council. _____________________________ > White Mesa Ute Reservation in San Juan County Utah.

Even assuming that the casino and other enterprises - other than the White Mesa pottery operation - are too far for the White Mesa Utes to commute to, they are certainly not too far for the tribal council to distribute the White Mesa Utes portion of the income - or better yet to use a portion of the income to invest in productive enterprises in the White Mesa area. So it still comes down to the fact that it is a tribal council problem. Anyone know a good attorney? ___________________________ ------------------------ Yahoo!
