something so wrong
MIDDLEBOROUGH -- Local officials, facing criticism from residents that their tentative deal with the Mashpee Wampanoag Indian tribe was vague and failed to bring enough money to town coffers, are now demanding that the tribe pay hundreds of millions of dollars to locate a casino in this sprawling municipality. Under a revised agreement circulated among local leaders, the town would seek upfront payments of at least $250 million for new roads and utilities, in addition to a percentage of the casino's annual slot machine revenues.
so... the Indians buy back the land we stole from them, then have to pay $250M to use it, plus a cut of their profits. that sounds fair.
