This may explain why no for-profit board or director pressed for protection of the permanent fund distributions for rural families, including their stock holders. Corporate protection from state taxation and protection of high salaried executives from individual taxes came first. I am waiting for one of the blessed and deserving generation of educated Alaska natives to betray his of her economic  class and step up support for those thousands not so blessed, men or women who have not forgotten those still left behind. I am certain this will happen.
