INDIAN-COUNTY WARS: Taxpayers Being Scalped By Their Own Lawyers & Lobbyists

Interesting article on the continuing Oneida Indian-Madison County wars....they cannot even agree on whether the Oneida's are a "recognized" tribe under a 1934 Federal law, which would make the Nation eligible to put land into trust and out of the reach of NYS tax authority. Interestingly, the general agreement among taxpayers is that this war has dragged on too long. The lawyers and Park Strategies (our $325,000 per year Lobbyists) continue to milk this issue and the County taxpayers.
