Paperback. Etat : Good. Are you a community leader or landowner on an Indian reservation having difficulty finding information on federal Indian policy decisions that affect your county, town or private land? Slumbering Thunder provides informational strength and reference for a basic knowledge of government decisions affecting your life, the lives of struggling tribal families, and the future of your state, and our country. The federal Executive Branch and federal agencies are using 566 tribal governments and Indian reservations in 43 states as launch pads to expand tribal authority over non-tribal citizens. The rapid spread of tribalism is erasing state authority over its natural resources, and protections of property rights and citizens. American taxpayers in metropolitan areas may also be shocked to know the direct impacts upon all Americans, even those living far distant from reservations. This book addresses a bottomless-pit of annual trillions of taxpayer dollars keeping tribal families in apartheid and continual poverty. Slumbering Thunder will give you decision-making tools, model letters, and commentaries about your protections, rights of local governments and states when experiencing federal and tribal government intrusions.…
