I can only say this, if it passes it will unite a LOT of America.
Just like after Pearl Harbor I would say, if not more so.
I am hearing some unusual discussions up here in Alaska, we have the liberal retreat of Anchorage...and then there is the very conservative rural Alaska.
Begich of course is voting yes, and the talk around the bush is that many are thinking of making life more difficult to those in Anchorage, just little things like price gouging, slowing freight down etc. So basically almost the whole rest of Alaska says NO very much but the big liberal city says yes.
Now myself I supervise a concrete batch plant, and from now on any delivery to the Anchorage area will be “zoned’ with an additional fuel charge.
Sounds petty but if I have the power to get back revenue I am now forced to pay out I most certainly will.
And I hope many more in America realize whats going to happen, your YES supporting Healthcare neighbors will not be your best buddies I suspect.
I agree with you, this will bring us together even more so then we are right now. It will also, IMO, be the straw on the camels back - divorce is imminent, we can no longer live with, compromise with or tolerate liberal/progressives/marxists. The fact is, we are the majority and we have no intention of paying alimony ;-)
I’m hearing many different things down here too. I live S. of Miami, an area that is usually conservative Democrat to moderate RINO’s. That has changed. I’m hearing over and over “This is Castro” “This is Chavez”. I lost my home country, I will not lose America” - comments like that are so common from those who have lived through this before.
I’ve never really understood the mindset of Alaskans. I know the State is pretty conservative/traditional but does have a large union presence and of course native population. Both groups that love the Government or someone else ruling over them.
Alaska is also a state that has more Government intervention then any other I can think of. I know there has been calls in the past for Alaska to cede from the Union and at times the movement had momentum. Is this bill the final act where the Fed’s go too far and Alaskans finally do push back? You would know much better than I would.
