The troopers are the last bastion of law outside of the grid. We're losing too many kids to heroine. And by the way the trooper mortality is on the rise. Don't let the bad guys win, keep the stations and let them do the job the DPS originally outlined for the state. It could be your kid the skum bag is after.

I disagree, Wavemaker–those who wish to stifle freedom of expression have greater desire to silence the likes of you and me than they do the RevoltingHemorrhoids and their ilk (geez, sounds like a ’90s Punk Band!). I therefore suggest we shouldn’t give them an excuse to do so by demanding they silence those with whom w...

It also makes sense not to pay out credits to the tune of 600 million when the revenue is zip. Paying the producers to take the oil, sell it, make some profit and we pay them to do it? Don't think so.

My problem with ice breakers is the Jones Act-- construction costs would be too much-- way, way too much.

Perhaps the silver lining with the oil price crash and use of the permanent fund is that it weakens the state's ties with oil revenue, and hopefully weakens Big Oil's stranglehold on our legislature's throats.

So what is your solution? The permanent fund restructuring is the only realistic way to fund government. It is just math. There isn't enough income to tax to pay for a 3 billion deficit. And if you tax my income and hand it to people getting PFD's, then the PFD becomes welfare

The best solution is Alaska stops paying nearly one billion in corporate welfare to multi-national corporations that take $7 billion dollars worth of our oil each year- at current prices.

I'm OK with keeping the PFD as is, and then implementing an income tax to pull some of it back. While it's not as progressive as a graduated tax, I would suggest a flat income tax on all residents. ~5% of gross income, no exemptions or deductions. If you make $50,000 per year, a 5% tax takes $2,500. But if your div...

Wielechowksi has this one right- the increased production is due to pre-SB21 long-intended expansions into CD5 .. We should not be paying these icostly ncentives at these oil prices. Suspending them until - and IF - there is a BIG increase in oil prices only makes sense.
