HB 47 would raise the gross profits tax from 4% to 5%.  I disagree that the oil companies will pull out over 1%.  I really disagree with paying hundreds of millions to give away 7-10 billion worth of oil.  We, the citizens of this state, should not be paying to pump our limited amount of oil.  We are not just giving it away, we are paying to give it away.  You want to tax me to give our oil away.  Not just no , Hell no.  HB 247 is good for the State of Alaska and the real Alaskans that have spent our lives here and would like to leave a good place for our kids.
