Welcome to the People's Republic of Alaska, where every resident this year will get a $3,200 payout, thanks in no small measure to the efforts of Sarah Palin, the state's Republican governor. That's $22,400 for a family of seven, like Palin's. Since 1982, the Alaska Permanent Fund, which invests oil revenues from state lands, has paid out a dividend on invested oil loot to everyone who has been in the state for a year. But Palin upped the ante by joining with Democrats and some recalcitrant Republican state legislators to share in oil company windfall profits, further fattening state tax revenue and permitting an additional payout in tax funds to residents.

I thought it was Obama who was riding the Oilcos and their windfall profits?

This exposes the Palin self-interest in wanting to allow the oilcos to drill the fuck out of Alaska. More oil extracted means more $$ for Palin. Consider it a "shill's commission" :lol

Just Palin? Or all Alaskans?

She's the one who sold the private jet the previous governor used, remember?

According to the new McCain ad, Obama gives Big Oil billions in subsidies.

So....Obama is bad for energy industry and Obama is in the pocket of the energy industry?:rolleyes:bang:rolleyes
