When I thought rightwing radio could not get worse, they find a way to make more awful. Shame on the station owners and producers, most of these hosts are extremely divisive and miserable to listen to.

No income tax until government spending is cut more. Private people are losing their jobs so state and muni workers need to feel pain as well.

I believe if they go through with this purchase, then, Mr. Stevens will see what an angry populace looks like. Pitchforks and torches may be an investment opportunity. There is zero reasons to stay in the LIO.

The legislature wants to purchase an Anchorage office building for $30+ million, which will eliminate a source of property tax revenue and benefit no one except the legislators themselves. (Also, since when was Anchorage the state capital? Shouldn't legislators be in Juneau and/or their home districts doing their jobs?...

By any metric, Tri Met is broke.

“In the long term, it may be a really good deal because we’d own the assets,” she said. “It’s not that luxurious. I mean, a lot of people have automatic trash cans in their homes, you know? Just put batteries in it.” Yeah, we Alaskans use our electric trash cans when we throw away all our extra cake, Marie-Antoinette.

Motley, you are correct but....contractors are known for placing a bid then claiming that they underbid the job due to circumstances they couldn't have foreseen and now they won't be able to complete the work unless they get more money. It happens constantly.

If the Chickasaw nation did not enforce their immigration laws there would be he11 to pay. Us Injuns understand what happens with unchecked immigration. The only reason why Idaho embraces illegal aliens, like any other state, is because they are dependent on agriculture and few American's work today.

This Majority is a perfect example of corruption and abuse of power.

I don't have a fundamental problem with the purchase of the LIO in Anchorage, with one caveat.
