Interesting reading this story and yet recalling how Alaska is cited with approval as an excellent example of how a society works with a guaranteed Government annual income payment (permanent fund). hmmm

Dude, do some math. $1000/12 = death from starvation. It’s expensive to live in Alaska - good example would be living at your local airport (example for price of goods).
I’ll agree with anyone that Alaska is another socialist paradise built on oil money - kinda like Venezuela - complete with 3rd world type poverty in the rural bush villages.
Now that oil prices have tanked, folks are moving out. The last time the oil prices tanked (mid-19802) 40K+ people left - just from Anchorage. I see that going on (again) right now, there isn’t a block in town where at least one house is for sale, RVs parked at the curb with for sale signs, etc, etc.
And yes, GCI is the queen of FedGov welfare payments.
