MV Mom (or Sarah Palin),

I disagree.  The poor pay everyday.  They pay in substandard wages called "minimum wage".  They pay in higher interest rates for everything from cars to credit cards, although many take public transportation and do not have a credit card.  The poor pay property taxes, especially when they rent.  The landlord includes those costs in the rent.  The poor do not receive tax deductions for property taxes or mortgage insurance which again, they pay via rent.  They pay in decreased opportunities for good jobs.  They pay by living in higher crime neighborhoods.  They pay.   

Abortion rates increase when preventive services are not readily available.  Education is a key component of reducing abortions.  Family planning by definition reduces abortion.

Residents would pay an income tax.  You do not seem to have any issues with non-residents paying anything in taxes and in many cases spending zip in Alaska.  FYI, many   corporations and non-profits pay zip in taxes.
