Do people in Alaska get money from the oil extracted from their state?
user
From what I can tell, some people in Alaska do, in some cases, although it’s not required for the oil to be extracted from their land.

Which people do?
user
I can find individual Alaska residents who get a share of oil revenue. I’m not sure if they all receive a share of the revenue, though.
assistant
So some people get a check but not all of them?
user
That’s correct. Some do receive checks, some don’t.
assistant
I wonder why some don't?
user
I’m not sure, but it could be a number of things.

I don’t know the answer to that.  It would be a good question to pose to an economist.
