They keep telling us how AK is making more under this shakedown, than we would otherwise. (see story graphic above). The truth is, we went from socking away billion$, to hemorrhaging billion$, in that one single act of legislation. Alaska is being taken to the cleaners...and it's no accident.

Val, I'd still like to see what the "many" say about this, in their own words, in writing! I got somewhat different information when I asked. Do you know whether depositions taken in a civil case are part of the public case record? I guess I should have asked the City's attorney last Wednesday!

One does become curious about why the investigation seems to be taking so long. Even the foot dragging by Clinton's attorneys and the Secy of State's office in producing e-mails shouldn't have slowed it to this snail's pace. Perhaps the granting of immunity to the fellow who was simultaneously holding three separat...

Nowhere in this 1600-count word tangle does the author explain that SB 21 actually is providing more to the state at these low oil prices than ACES would have. SB 21 is a major improvement over ACES when prices drop. And the writer ignores that the state is receiving over $1 billion in oil receipts and revenues to vari...

"We don’t know what’s in it, but you assure us it will be really fantastic…" Worked for Representative Pelosi, Senator Reid and President Obama. And it had two huge problems that only the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court was able to fix which were caused by sloppy draftsmanship by all of the above.

Republicans across the state are being spoon fed by their party strategists that voters are too gullible and will keep voting them back into office. I wonder if voters even care about what is happening to our fiscal affairs. From where I sit, the upcoming election looks dismal.

The inability of local voters to modify land use decisions isn't the Judge's fault. It was built into the system back in the '70's so voters couldn't circumvent what the Land Use Planners wanted.
