Imposing an income tax on Alaskans in a recession will:  (choose one)

A.  Improve the economy.
B.  Reduce household income, and deepen our recession.
C.  Eliminate the deficit.

The correct answer?  B.  Not only will an income tax hurt Alaskans- it will increase the cost of state government as dozens of new employees will need to be hired.  

Even worse, it will not raise enough money to even pay the corporate welfare the insane Republicans in the Senate insist on paying to their Big Oil employers.
