" Crooked as a dog's hind leg ". That pretty much sums it up, the gerrymandering, coupled with an all out assault on democratic principles perpetrated by the Parnell administration has left Alaska in this predicament. Our current conservative thugs have only their self interest at heart. That part of the republican philosophy remains constant. That the budget was ever allowed to grow to four billion is criminal in itself. The problem with restructuring the dividend is there are no checks and balances associated with government spending, we see what they've managed to accomplish thus far, give our children's future to the oil companies. Its time to take back our government and diversify our interest in economic development. Thanks for another fine commentary Shannyn.

I agree with using PF earnings to fund some government. I couldn't tell but it seemed the author was in favor of the status quo. He also seemed to advocate spending cuts(which I support but likely won't happen), and an income tax. 

Problem is, that ain't gonna do it. It would be a miracle if there were $500 million in spending cuts. Or perhaps a $500 million whack in oil taxes and credits. A combination of Income tax and sales tax might be good for 300 or 400 million dollars. You still have to find 2.5 billion somewhere...or hope like heck for $120 pb oil.

That's why I made the stupid post on purpose. I wanted to show how much income tax that wage and income earners would have to pay in a hypothetical to eliminate the deficit as it stands now. Because the 6% of federal liability would only cover around 2.5% of it, or around $100 million

Failed reading comprehension? I'll admit it was a weak subject for me. But something needs to change in the status quo with the PF and PFD.

If you think it is so good exploring for oil in Alaska then join all those that have tried, like bankrupt Buccaneer, Cook Inlet Energy, Miller Energy and others! Pioneer lost $300 million dollars! 

Caelus CEO Jim Musselman has what he has because he earned it, if he was not in Alaska for the last two state oil lease sales they would have been a very bad! 

Wake up,  Alaska is not a nice place to do business even Alaskans can't drill and profit! 

Welfare? Jim may be waking up to the fact that Alaska has ignorant people that don't know what welfare really is! Trust me if  great oil men like Mr. James C. Musselman leave Alaska more Alaskans may need welfare!

HB 247 will hand Alaska's market share to Saudi's prince who caused the glut but Alaska CAN use the protection of the $10 billion constitutional reserve to save the state from this market manipulation! 

HB 247 and SB 130 may go down in history as Walker's Folly because it will stop investor from drilling in Alaska for a long time!
