The city wants to waste 1/4 million dollars of the renewal district money on a silly bike-share program, the same type of program that is FAILING in Seattle! http://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/transportation/seattle-transportation-director-under-ethics-probe-regarding-bike-share-system/

No one is making money at these low prices and they want to change the the law and increase taxes, that is suicide!! With HB 247 the drillers will stop drilling in Alaska and the state will suffer very badly!! Alaskans and smaller competitors can’t drill and profit because the laws are too harsh and the system is rig...

APOC makes it hard for a small business owner to run. You have to disclose any customer that buys more then $500 in product from you. So, if you lean progressive then you have potential to loose some of your conservative customers business and vice versa. That's why most business owners wait until they retire before ...

Meh. Tax the oil companies and the tourists before you start with an income tax. If we have an income tax, one of the major motivators for living/staying in Alaska is just kind of over.

I agree about a sales tax.

Minimum length of a rifle barrel in Oregon is 16 inches. Oregon is an NFA friendly state.

We should look at this a bit differently. If the oil companies want a tax credit, then they need to produce and sell more oil and stop decreasing output each year after year. If what they are getting is more in credits than what they are paying, it becomes welfare.
