acknowledging that prohibition has not worked, in a major change in strategy since the late 20th century, as of 2007, 63 percent of the federally recognized tribes in the lower 48 states had legalized alcohol sales on their reservations. among these, all the other tribes in south dakota have legalized sales, as have many in nebraska. the tribes decided to retain the revenues that previously would go to the states through retail sales taxes on this commodity. legalizing the sales enables the tribes to keep more money within their reservation economies and support new businesses and services, as well as to directly regulate, police and control alcohol sales. the retained revenues enable them to provide health care and build facilities to better treat individuals and families suffering from alcohol abuse. in some cases, legalization of alcohol sales also supported the development of resorts and casinos, to generate revenues for other economic enterprises.
