If our st gvmt don't open their eyes, ears & mind to new innovative ways to create st $$ we are doomed!The increased spending & no income obviously isn't working. There's numerous things the st can invest in or create to increase revenue & make them sustainable, other states & few countries have why not AK? AK has recently passed legalization of pot. If they would make it the same rules & reg. as any alcohol sales & tax it like they do with alcohol n tobacco = $$$. If they invested in some greener energy sources, cost of operations to run current energy sources would decrease. It is more expensive to create but would pay off 5-10yrs down the road. Bring back the state tax, they should've never taken it off the table. Raise the taxes for international companies who profit off our water & land. Decrease $$ put into the jail/prisons. Jail is a punishment not a day spa for criminals. They shouldn't be getting paid to clean,cook,& do laundry. It should be done anyways w/o $$. Food=bread&H2O
