Kinsley can fudge numbers all he wants, but The Tax Foundation rates AK as the fourth best state in the Union overall in terms of tax burden.

AK has no income tax and no sales tax.

CNN said Alaska had the lowest tax burden a couple years ago. So what is this guy talking about?

"AK has no income tax and no sales tax"

As the article says, they don't have to, they tax the oil company.

And the oil company passes it onto you, the consumer.

And that's not all.

Palin's Pipeline is another scheme to tax the oil company, who will pass it onto you the consumer.

The TransCanada website has the 25 year payout of revenues on Palin's Pipeline

Oil companies- $207 billion
Alaskazuela- $131 billion
FedGov- $52 billion
TransCanada- $17 billion
