“Because of OHA’s action in the Leiali`i-Laiopua case, affordable housing in Kona and West Maui has not been built. The native Hawaiians OHA purports to represent suffer because of its actions. Yet the Hawai`i Supreme Court falsely equates a settlement with OHA to a settlement with native Hawaiians. They are in fact opposites.”

Yup. Something very similar happens here. Ask the average Maori in the street how much of the Billions and Billions of treaty settlement money he’s received.
