You write one liners casting stones and everyone's comments. Why don,t you propose a solution Welfare. Your just on a super witty little tear today putting folks in their place:). "corporate welfare" is not our issue although in a perfect world you could continue to lay off your fiscal needs on the oil companies forever right? Sounds great. Although if we tax them out of the market the effect will be felt by all (even you) as we will actually be forced to pay taxes (gasp!!). We are a state in which we pay virtually nothing for our roads/schools/ect. I know you like your free money but with a broken budget, a state that continues to pass a dividend when its losing money with no gov performance based measures is crazy. We need to diversify our revenue steams and tie the dividend to active governance by the people like Hammond intended. By putting the dividend in constitution it is a disincentive for the people to hold those accountable to govern effectively.
