The state needs to tax us to pay the oil companies?  I think they would do just fine without us.  Damn socialists.

Income tax would only raise $200 Million which would not even cover payments to oil companies.  This whole taxing Alaskans argument is just an absurd distraction.

If conservatives were to tell their constituents the truth, they would have to admit they voted yes on a tax policy crafted by the oil tax employees/legislators which is the reason we have a budget crisis.

And the only way to fix our budget crisis is to reverse the damage they have done.
