I would say that on the lawful side of this question, they may have been compensated for what they have lost originally in the 1800’s. They got only positive outcomes out of that deal in terms of aches of land and the treated water, but other problems did arise out of this deal. The rights of water use are stated to be linked to many other plagues on the community, mainly unemployment, single parent families and illegal drug activities. So with all this considering, I believe that the people have not been given a fair deal. Sure we have given them some land to them to do what they please, but we cannot really expect that to fix the problem. Just giving people land and leaving it like that only made matters worse. It’s stated in the The Tohono O’odham article that problems today could be called even more challenging than that of twenty years ago. The people who are angry the most about this situation are actually the younger generations. And all honesty, who would blame them? They had to grow up under these conditions and because of it probable made them bitter. They don’t even take advantage of the college prorgrame there. People who are an enrolled member of the Tohono O’odham Nation can go to college at almost no out-of-pocket expense, which is great, but little actually do it.

To summaries, I believe that the people there have gotten the short end of the stick. They had their land removed and relocated and that really messed up their community with many problems to go with it.
