Just the other day we had to read of a $400,000 software purchase done with "left over" state funds and how are things at the Kodiak Space Port and that Houston Texas gas line office?  

 Do these "leaders" understand that some Alaskans are lucky to have $100  "left over" at any given time?    Also, look at the tax rates  for an  income of $60,000 per year,  According to the table in the article, for married with two children ($483) while single with two children ($866). Given the costs of raising children, how can that be fair?  Or, perhaps we are seeing a little "social engineering"  telling that single parent that hey had better get married if he or she wants a tax break from the ever-so-pious Alaska Legislature?
