It's not actually state-owned land.

The Federal governemnt owns about 60% of Alaskan land. The State of Alaska owns about 30%. Corporations repreesnting native peoples own almost all the rest. Private landowners own a fractional percentage.

When Alaska became the 49th state in 1959, it and the federal government agreed to a statehood compact that requires that 90 percent of all revenue from oil, mineral and gas leasing on Alaska's Federal land be given to the state.

I'm not sure I understand this completely, but I think that means that Alaska gets 90% of the revenue from the leases paid to the Federal government. And I think that is on TOP of the additional profit taxes were were talking about before!

Mo' money! Mo' money! Mo' money!

90% of the lease revenue on Federal lands!
Plus a profit tax on oil companies passed on to all of us consumers as more expensive fuel costs!
Plus a beggars cup held out to the Feds for $1.75 return on every $1 they send to the Feds!

And they just redistribute that wealth to the citizens of Alaska in the form of annual checks of $2000 a person, bonus checks of $1200 per person, and gas cards for $100 free gas per month!

Try to put some lipstick on THAT pig!

Still the same, doesn't seem like a great idea, if what the article says is true. You can't really lay the blame solely on her however, there was the state legislature that obviously was apart of this. In the short term I can see how someone could make an argument for doing just this, if you are serving the people of Alaska, however, doesn't seem to be a super duper great idea at all.:wtf:
That being said, it should be a plus for all the whiney liberal wackos that believe it IS a good idea!
And oh yeah, she is still fucking hot, I would still do her until I broke it off, and I will still vote for McCain. Just chalk that up to yet another point that I don't agree with within my party. The list grows, but it's no where near the length of the list for the democrats. I can at least find issues that I do actually agree with the GOP on. Haven't found that yet on the other side, don't really expect to.
Did I mention she is facking hauwwt!:D
Good point though, so she is in agreement with the left on this issue, doesn't make me happy, but isn't exactly something that I see swaying any conservatives away either. Because the alternative is far worse on a broader range of issues, at least for me.
Thanks for fucking up my night, DICK!:S4: (I say that jokingly of course....(muttering under my breath, Dragon is a DICKFARM grumble grumble scowl, sneer!);)

So far, Kush, you are the only conservative to reposnd honestly to this idea that Palin has not necessarily acted as a true "fiscal conservative." Thanks for that! (Even if you did call me a dickfarm, whatever the hell that is.)
