Is **anybody** at home in your head?
The "oil companies" provide a full 90% of all State income. The Gov would be both an idiot and fail in his duties not to talk with the largest revenue source for the state.
BTW - SaraH's ACES tax was overturned just in time. Oil is now down to about $80/bbl, and the new SB21 tax setup is bringing in more money to the state.
BTW - locally ACES is called **Alaska Clearly Entering Socialism**. ouch...
Oh, and that pipeline she had all but built? Ya, no pipeline.
I have not called you any names nor have I attacked you personally.
We are done.
And how much of that is the Pricepoint Difference of getting Oil from Alaska to the lower 48 or wherever, when the transportation cost give it a price disadvantage to it's competitor, i.e. to the culmination of technologies we call "Fracking" and the fact it that Fracking is occurring in parts of the country that don't have the extra cost of dealing with extreme cold on so many levels fit into play?
Just asking....
