Joseph Goebbels an old NAZI leader and zealot, fine-tuned the art of controlling perception through propaganda and repeated lies...
The Alaska oil cartel and other industrial giants have perfected it, and use it still.  They just call it PR now, and it`s tax deductible for them!!!
  Don`t-- drink the kool-aid that "what`s good for Exxon is good for Alaska". All it leads to is tax subsidies when it is applied to Alaska.  
We tried that with GM remember?  They are two different things folks, the truth, and lies.  Sometimes they make it very hard to catch them at it.  If we`re waiting for oil companies and high oil prices to bail us out forget it. Not with the corrupted legislation SB21 and it`s "per barrel" tax subsidies.
