Let's stop using "restructure" in the PFD conversation. Code talk for taking the people's money for government use doesn't make it any more acceptable. No raid on the PFD until the oil credits are repealed, SB21 is repealed, and the oilies are paying a production tax on every barrel in the pipeline. Cut the budget to less than $3 billion. After that, instead of "restructuring" (taking) the PFD, leave the fund just as it is now. Place a temporary head tax on every recipient of a PFD check. As unpleasant as this is, it is fair and spreads the pain to each Alaskan equally. Each Alaskan owns an equal share in the PFD. An income tax is the most unfair plan and a state sales tax will impact areas which already have local sales taxes. When people see a deduction on their PFD check, they will pay attention to what the Legislature is doing and just perhaps demand change.
