Last time I checked, Alaskans pay federal income tax along with the rest of the Lower 48. (sarcasm) Do you realize how many of the fancy, "just gotta have", projects us Alaskans are paying for that are demanded by those in the Lower 48? We do not have that many folks living up here but you all down there sure love to come on up here and use our roads by the hundreds and hundreds of thousands. We have to fix up the wear and tear on the roads caused by the tourists. I'm not complaining, just pointing out that your comment is rather self-righteous and ignorant.

Yeah, and last time I checked you get back 1.89 for every dollar in federal tax you pay. Fact. Guess where that comes from. Hint, it's not the tooth fairy.
