Given the legal, accepted practices of lobbyists & the big corporate interests they serve, along with loose & practically non-existent Ethics Rules for the Ak Legislature, we can only expect more of the same.  Until we Alaskans draft &, by Initiative, impose appropriate Ethics Rules on our lawmakers, & thereby limit the power of lobbies, we are doomed to see more abuse of power/money that has become the norm for Alaska's state government. Bringing about such a long overdue, but necessary change would not be easy, but the future of our State makes a massive effort worthwhile.
