I am glad for him that prostate cancer is usually very manageable. Still for most people a cancer diagnosis is a wake up call. Priorities often change. A person might remember that it is other humans that make a community and a family, not government or big business or even money. Taking a thousand dollars from each Alaskan was a huge mistake that must weigh on the governor as it would on any moral person. and for what?  I don't wish him bad but at the same time he took that money knowing full well the burden that it would incur on real Alaskan people. I hope he doesn't expect this will make us forget his folly.
