I object to you using the word steal. But that’s ok, I just want it noted.
“The rats are going to use the same idea to steal royalties”
I really don’t think so. I think a very strong case against using it can be made. Alaska is unique in many ways. That being so, the issues they have to deal with are unlike the issues we have to deal with, and therefore, also require unique solutions.
The solution Alaska came up with works for them, but , more than likely, would not work for us. You’re the business professor, I’m sure you can see that.
peace.
I should have said "legally steal", not "steal". Property theft is a criminal violation. Legalized theft is not a criminal violation. Morally, I think that legalized theft is wrong. Unfortunately, many recipients of legalized theft support it so the practice is becoming common. The income tax structure is legalized theft especially the rat proposals for huge tax increases on a select group of citizens. The rats have convinced many voters that they are entitled to the property of others. The rats have also convinced voters that there will not be negative consequences from legalized theft.
