Well if I lived in Anchorage, I would have lobbied for a modest sales tax years ago. The remote communities come to Anchorage and shop, even the valley does. Placing the burden all on the property owner doesn't accurately reflect Anchorage demographics, at the same time I cant stand Sullivan, Parnell, the other Sullivan and most republicans, both the Koch brothers and especially ole bug eye who just flopped again on the supreme court nominee.
