Morongo Indian Reservation, East of San Bernardino:

the other side of the Indian story concerning meth...

News From Indian Country 9-09


Quote:
...With a monthly income averaging $30,000 for each Tribal
Member, the new Morongo Casino has done more than just eliminate
welfare and federal subsidy dependencies. The Morongo Band of Mission
Indians has become one of the most successful tribes in California and
ranks amongst the most successful in the Nation...


...There is a huge methamphetamine epidemic for the Morongo Reservation
and members there still suffer from drug and alcohol related dependencies...
To be fair, this is an exerpt. I don't know how biased the article is, but for sure things are much different than twenty years ago, certainly forty years ago.

There truly has been a meth problem at Morongo in the near past. I haven't seen anything concerning Mexican dealers at Morongo.
