I think what bothers me is we did not create this mess.  Those who were elected to serve created it and continued it for years and years with their OWN choices, their OWN decisions.  And why shouldn't it bother people regarding the pfd.  You are taking money from them and then again want to take even more by taxes on income etc.  now let's play the math game.  How many people in Alaska right now are on food stamps, Wic program, energy subsidies, rent subsidies and the list goes on and on for free money given to those who are poor or who refuse to help themselves improve.  So now you want to take as much money from people who not only work to provide for their own families but who also work to provide those free goodies to all those lazy ones who don't want to work and feel entitled to get the free stuff. You will push all good people out of this state and be left with nothing but a welfare state and still no money coming in Governor.  Didn't see that one coming did you?
