Yes Cadmus the 8% return jumped out at me too. I call BS unless they can show us the numbers and not just some slickster pitch, actual returns. If the 8% is so solid then I'm sure the Permanent Fund managers would be all over this. Rate of return on the PF for FY16 I believe was 1.02% with % return on bonds at 5.29%, not 8%. If Alaska had used the POMV formula to fund government as proposed we'd be losing even more. Enough with the people that don't know finance/economics making decisions that will greatly impact Alaska's future.  Walker obviously doesn't.
