Not at all . I'm living the dream . The PFD could end tomorrow and it wouldn't effect my life in any way . Growing families on the other hand---they could pool their money and go back to where them came from with the abilities to buys homes and be set for life . With tens of thousands leaving Alaska we'd need fewer schools saving millions on education , there'd be fewer cars clogging our roads and fishing banks . With less riff raff we'd need fewer police and prisons saving millions---and the list is endless. We could cut the state budget in half with so much less required services.   Everyone has known that some how , some day , legislators would fine a way to take everyone's PFD . That day is here . With one last big payout everyone gets a golden chute .  Even the feds get unexpected money in taxes.  Everyone wins . Those remaining will be here because they love Alaska , not a yearly handout. Alaska will be a much better place to live with the riff raff gone . Trust me.
