Here is what the reporter left out.  

Jim Jansen does a LOT of business with Exxon.  He is part of the group that sold Alaskans out with SB-21- the giveaway of $10 billion dollars worth of oil per year.

Click Bishop is the guy who sold out Alaska by voting for SB-21.  

Gillam tells the truth that an income tax would be bad for Alaska. All of these schemes, whether they be raids on the dividend, or new taxes on Alaskans are plans to make Alaskans poorer to subsidize the theft of $10 billion dollars of our oil, per year.

We are going broke because we are giving away our oil. None of these schemes to deprive Alaskans of their dividends- or leave Alaskans with less disposable income- will solve the budget deficit.  We must get a fair return on our oil followed by reforms to state spending as the first steps.
