Everything has two sides. It worries me that money will come too fast to members of the tribe. Like a person caught up in celebrity, they might not handle it well. It worries me that they will lose their history and culture. Nevertheless, it is also their right, as long as ALL tribe members have voted on it and teh majority approved it.
