Handouts are not pure capitalism bray. Government always makes royalties off public land resource exploitation and offshore...that is not the question.
Does any other state do it?
Why not just reduce state budget tax needs instead of giving out cash.
I find it a serious question for a conservative forum and it is not about Palin..she only gets credit for making them more honest in their accounting..the Permanent Dividend has been in place since 1976
Wouldn’t this be sort of like a rental property? If the people “own” it wouldn’t the oil companies have to “rent” it? And does it matter whether any other state does it? If we truly believe in states rights then what Alaska does is their business.
