Why do Native Americans get lots of special treatment? They have special people help them in schools, they have special homes that only Natives can buy, and some businesses only help Natives. Isn't this kind of racist and why are we doing this? Does this mean we can make businesses that only help white people?

It wasn't that long ago that we took all their land (after signing treaties not to) and forced them onto unusable small plots of land where there is no way to make a living. This was after killing most of them. We did similar things to African slaves. There is plenty of room for argument about how much reparations are needed and for how long, but learn the history before you jump in.
It IS (racial) bias, an effort to bring people to the same level of opportunity in our democracy. We do this in all aspects of life, children vs adults, women vs men, senior athletes have their own tournaments... women still have to be just as good to fly a fighter jet, but at least they are now allowed to try. And so on.

Hello s:

Where I live, they don't. Therefore, I suggest your world view is limited by your towns city limits.

The housing is normally on Indian lands and their tribal groups do provide housing, Also some groups get payments based on use of their lands for oil or gambling.

Can you give a more specific rant as to where this is, who is getting job preference, what type of business and so on.
