President Bush is looking to reduce spending on the Bureau of Indian Affairs, and Sen. Johnson is hopping mad. The Argus article makes it sound like an actual cut, rather than a reduction in the rate of increase. Someone tell me if I am wrong. Since I find the whole idea of a Bureau of Indian Affairs a bit offensive to basic liberal principles, I am not too worried, but then the administration has the responsibility to suggest how the Native Americans can work their way out of horrible poverty and how the government can help.
