True in the U.S. Except, of course, in Alaska. Somehow in Alaska, very red state Alaska, home to Sarah Palin, every state resident gets a dividend from the oil revenue. Not that I approve of the reason why considering no one should be making revenue by fossil fuels, but somehow Republicans are fine with that exception. I wish they were pressed on it occasionally.
Conservatives love telling people that winning or losing is a personal failure, and hate government interference, but also love to make life as easy as possible for large corps.
They clearly understand that regulation works, and that governments working to stabilize a country can be really powerful, and then they go and do entirely the wrong shit about while swearing that regulation is evil and governments are evil. It’s all just feelings and whatever they hear first/whatever is oversimplified and yelled.
That’s the point. It’s entitlement when poor people do it. It’s “the fair share that they deserve” when they do it. If conservatives didn’t have double standards they wouldn’t have standards at all.
I could be wrong, but I believe that all Native Americans that still identify as their indigenous nations, and live on the reservations are considered citizens of sovereign nations by the US. That’s why I was asking.

They’re fine with it because voters would hate to have their free money taken away
Oh, but isn’t it an ‘entitlement?’

I wonder, do the indigenous peoples of Alaska get that?
I believe they do, but I’m not 100% sure.
