I don't think you're correct there as others have pointed out, but are you trying to say that taxation is bad, or that this kind of rent-seeking behavior is goo

  He's saying that you can't both say it's good if the government does it and bad if a tribe does it. The tribe has just as much right (that is, might), as a "legitimate government".

    > He's saying that you can't both say it's good if the government does it and bad if a tribe does it. Who says that though? Is it a straw man argument or is there some real point to it? Is it bad when the government and the tribe does it, or good when they do it? > The tribe has just as much right (that is, might), as a "legitimate government".

  He says it's historically their land, their taxes. It's as good or as bad as when a state does it.

    I know I'm asking what his point is. Taxes bad or rent-seeking good?
