In Iowa, the latest plan is for the Carbon Capture pipeline. Battles over oil pipes have been lost, for the most part. Casinos run rampant (Mafia influence?).

The bottom line in all of the questions seem to be the intentional ignorance of treaty violations and original agreements with first nations. The state and federal governments have to keep pretending that the reservation systems were valid in the first place, and that international courts have no jurisdiction. One crack in the facade, and like an apartment building in Davenport, it all falls down. The United States of Theft and Colonialism has no actual property legs to stand on (Can we really justify the Louisiana Purchase from France?), so we stand on cannons and piles of money (corporations). As tribes build more and more land cooperatives and casinos, one can hope they collect enough WPM (white people's money) to buy back the forests and plains.
