I understand, I think I like your insights Mr. John Mc Dowell,

I especially like when you said..."That's what I get from being “like Texas”. In that respect I wish we were like Texas."

John, can the people of Alaska and Congress make a law giving the state land to the people of Alaska now so it will not continued to be mismanaged by the state? 

Do you think the state or the people can manage the land better in general?

Would you like it if each person in Alaska received a lottery with 160 acres each or whatever the pro rata number would be? Why not let the people own the land like Texas?

What about the $55 Billion dollar  Permanent Fund would it be better to distribute it to each Alaskans now on pro rata share now whatever it may be $50,000-$100,000 or is it better in the hands of the state government? 

How can Alaska's oil and gas Industry be better in your view? Thank you for your meaningful  insights!
