Liars ,Liars, Pants on Fire!! Tony never took my suggestion either, then a trade/ option of PFD for Land to Alaskans.  It's time  for The Alaska Land Voucher Program  to create New Wealth and invest in Alaskans.  My Dad's '99 Times  Article   Quote  " We shouldn't be arguing among ourselves. Sales tax vs income tax vs PFD   we are beating each other up and loosing sight of what is really being said. What pocket do I take your money out of,  they are saying.  The question is . why are we not getting the value of the wealth we already have? Why are we being asked for more and receiving less? It doesn't make sense !  It makes one think who is serving whom?  The point is, this wealth that belongs to the citizens of Alaska is unfairly benefiting those that are not the people of Alaska ie Wall street investors.  Ask the right questions , and we could correct this. Fail to ask them and it will get worse."  As a son of a Alaska Pioneer Homesteader, Dad would  say " Land makes New Wealth".
