"Everyone know a tax on income discourages work"?  No Strada, I doubt if anyone believes that malarkey.  If income taxes "discouraged work", then those upper income folks wouldn't work so much, now would they.  I guess that is why so many people do not work because of that discouraging federal income tax. 

I do agree that Alaskans need to work, which is why we shouldn't reward companies that hire non-residents and we should have a state income tax to recoup some of that money from non-resident workers before they go back home out of state.  

I did read your entire sentence and no, it doesn't support a state income tax destroying Alaska's future or your discouraging work malarkey.
