Clown, the state of Alaska was bought, it belongs lock stock and barrel to the American tax payers. The johnny come lately that live there have no bigger claim than the rest of americans. And this welfare craps needs to stop. That excludes the native indians that have a seperate status.
Go throw rocks at the tigers, junior.
Not sure what point you were making to that other poster.
But the info in your post sounds wrong.
The state of Alaska owns 24% of the land in Alaska, the Federal Government owns 63% and 12% is owned privately. I believe the royalties come from state owned land, and not Federally owned land.
Besides the Feds don't allow drilling on their land which means that the American Tax payers have NO Claim.
