Sharman Haley has not offered a credible position.  She lists four items to address the budget deficit, income taxes, a raid on the dividends, deep budget cuts, etc.  All are recessionary.  All hurt Alaskans.

The first thing- and the least recessionary thing we must do is get a fair return on our oil.  Almost $1 billion dollars of oil is stolen from Alaska- nearly tax free- per MONTH. 

The Dispatch is failing Alaskans with these never ending commentaries that preach plans that take money from working Alaskans while letting billions be lost to multi- national corporations.
