re: #159 lawhawk
Had someone tweeting to me overnight about how Palin was great as governor - giving back money to residents.
Odd thing though. She didn’t initiate that program. That existed for years before she became governor. It was a way to encourage people to come to Alaska - a portion of the oil taxes were put into a fund and then distributed annually. Palin gave a one-time increase to that plan.
And now? Alaska is contemplating income taxes because oil taxes are falling off a cliff, so the state faces a budget deficit that has to be closed.
But when you put this into Palin word salad context, all Palin did as governor was spread opium to the masses. *facepalm*
Isn’t that a combination of Socialism and Communism? Funny how the heavily Republican Alaskans don’t have a problem with that program.
