Sad, but true.  I and my family have collected every PFD and Palin's energy bonus.  Now this year, I turned 66 and my property taxes are cut in half, and my truck registration is free for no reason other than the clock rotated enough times.  Who makes up for those fees I paid?  And remember it is state welfare across the spectrum as is demonstrated by Charles Wohlforth regarding the AIDEA Umiat road in his article today.  Time to seriously means test these entitlements with an objective cost/benefit analysis.
