Certainly these questions are good when the discussion is centered around Native American issues.
But what about me? I'm just a guy. I'm just a US citizen. I have land too. Why does the government get to control the little details of my life?
Not being a Native American doesn't mean that I don't also matter.
You just think you have land. Try not paying your property tax and see who really owns the land. (I am a landowner, and this infuriates me)
