text: The bottom line is we have been sold out.
  And I look around and wonder why so few are standing up to reverse this tragedy-in-the-making, our one-time resource wealth being flushed into faraway coffers in such a nightmare scenario as we've allowed to happen under Big Oil's boot on our collective neck.
  The Republican majority is shameless, amoral, and yet most claim to be Christians of high order, yet they do this to their own friends and neighbors, indeed to their own home state because 30 pieces of silver have apparently stood the test of time.
  And I find the Governor's approach to this (restructuring the PFD) weak-kneed and obviously subject to the prodding, intimidation and likely sweet-talking embellishments of the big-money interests that actually are behind wanting into the Permanent Fund, their cut of the Holy Grail of Mammon.
  And screw the rest of us, especially the least among us. Because they're losers anyway, right?
  This is a well-engineered takedown of our sovereign state.
