Alaska is a special case but lots of other places could use similar methods to gain support for drilling.

For instance we could lift the great lakes drilling ban and great eliminate state taxes in the great lakes states to spur business.

I personally do not see anything wrong with this.

In fact, I think other states, every state, should pay its state resident citizens to live there.

This year’s check is the smallest since 2006 and $107 less than last year’s amount, which was $1,281. Parnell warned the amount could diminish more in the future, given market volatilities and the fact that oil production in the state is declining.

They also give the money to the kids and the parents save it for college. At least the good ones not in economic trouble do.

Compare Gov. Palin to the MSM's "front" RINO.

INCONVENIENT FACTOID OF THE DAY:

Terrible, proven-bad Gov. Romney, in another of his “hit and runs”
managed to even raise taxes on New Hampshire residents
while Gov. of Massachusetts. Yes its true. ... and that is beyond RomneyCARE
== Believe it or not.

How Romney is that?

The wife and mine is going to fill up our home heating oil tank. Yeah!
Cost of living up here is rough boys and girls. Not complaining mind you. Keeps the riff-raff out! :-)

Whoopee. The PFD’s are dividend payouts on investments. And they are only paid once a year. Most people wind up paying bills with the money. Last year’s dividend was over $1,200. Thanks, O.

Food stampers get more than that per person per year and that’s just the start. Once someone has an EBT card they qualify for all kinds of socialist give aways, free cell phone, cable TV, broadband internet access, etc., and free rides to the voting booth.
