Giessel said. “It’s got to be deliberate. It’s got to be carefully thought out.” Why now? If it was carefully thought out to begin with, we wouldn't have this hot mess. These legislators aren't capable of careful thought.

It was one of the most wonderful days of my life. Participating in Democracy, when you actually believe what you're doing, is enthralling! I cried, I laffed, I shouted. So many people with so many hopes. Defeat the establishment. I've got to say that twice in my life, in much choicer words, but was young, dumb, and did...

“The Parnell administration and the Legislature repeatedly beat back attempts to institute a higher tax floor than the 4 percent that was ultimately included in SB 21. In 2012, for instance, Fairbanks Democratic Sen. Joe Paskvan said the way to protect the state when oil prices dropped was to institute a minimum 10 per...

400 yards from my house is a jack up drill rig tied to the Homer deep water dock. Not one single Alaskan is on the crew. Mostly the crew is from Louisiana. If they strike oil in the Inlet, not one penny of taxes will be paid the state. If they produce gas, the state will collect a mere 17 cents per mbf. This is a...

Coach Altman graciosly accepted Coach K's apology and said, in essence, just as we've all said after receiving an apology..."hey, no big deal...don't worry about it." That's a credit to his civility and professionalism, just as the apology was a credit to Coach K.

Drones are a purposeful effort to target ISIS leadership. There is never any intention to kill innocent civilians. We need to keep it that way.

Not that I disagree with your initial point but I do think it's worth adding that back when it was $18 a barrel there was a significantly higher level of production to offset the lower price.

Actually there is very little hatred for capitalism, the wealthy, and corporations. The 'hatred' has more to do with the potential negative affects that money (power) can inflict on a nation and the world in general. Not the labels. Differentiate.

If one neglects violence in nature, Alaska is not even close to "the most dangerous state" in 2013.
