Once again no mention of budget cuts as a part of the solution. I for one can not
find the real numbers of how much has been cut in real dollars not just eliminating
jobs that have not been filled or canceling projects that have not been funded and
calling that a cut. Numbers I see range from two plus billion to the low millions.
There are 49 other states that fund their budget without a PF to draw from. Alaska
per capita spending is much higher than any other state. Some taxes  are needed to bring
Alaska in line with other states  but an honest accounting of how much has really been
cut must be made.
