just a non-related coincidence....................so minor a point it just never crossed her mind there was an obvious conflict. That half a billion dollar road would cost 20-30 million a year to maintain.   The Ferry system brings in more money to Alaska than it costs to run.   The road to McKinnon`s mine will only cost the taxpayer more revenue, as the rape ruin and run boys, like the slope cartel, continue to socialize the costs of continuing work on their legacy state oil and gas leases, and privatize the profits.   
   Remember the "ALEC" pledge to stop any taxes? by the current conoco caucus birds on the second floor in Juneau?   http://www.adn.com/politics/article/lawmakers-anti-tax-pledge-could-pose-challenge-alaska-gov-walkers-fiscal-plan-0/2015/11/08/  Just who do they owe allegiance to?  Grover Norquist and the right wingers?.. or the people of Alaska who are asking for fiscal fixes from this same bunch?  Please tell your legislators and senators to act prudently with a fix.
