text: I read this today a "Comment by Dave Harbour (He might be onto something): One wonders if this is an act of state sabotage or just more incompetence. Or, could it be another AGDC-style, calculated effort to separate private investors from their leases and/or capital investments in a path toward creation of a state owned petroleum corporation? dh" 
  
  Many state regulators are hostile toward Alaska's private oil workers, why? 
  
  It seems all the state oil and gas agencies are doing everything they can to kill oil and gas investment in Alaska's oil business, what is going on?
  
  If the people ( voters) of the state of Alaska don't clean house in the government this next election the economy could end up like Venezuela soon. 
  
  After 30 years in the oil business I feel the hostile stance of the AOGCC and the DNR, Division of oil and gas could shut down the Trans Alaska Pipeline very soon,  in my opinion! 
  
  These agencies seem to be 1/3 oil haters, 1/3 monopoly lovers and 1/3 good people, pray!!
