Actually,pssst, did you think Alaska was exempt from federal taxes? good effort, though.
Now look who's being egregious.
Weird! it capitalized the quote!
so then NV, CT, NJ, et al should be sending part of their state licensed gambling revenues to the federal govt as well, right? I mean, it's not my fault that where I live doesn't license gambling, is it? I don't expect profits from Monaco, but Nevada isn't a country by itself, it belongs to the country of the US.
I don't think you'd give a rat's ass about this if Palin wasn't governor of AK; it's been going on for close to 30+ years.
But for all the cries of independence, Alaska is dependent on the federal government. The state receives more federal dollars per resident than any other state, mostly money for military bases and federal capital projects. The cost of living is very high in a state that straddles the Arctic Circle, especially in transportation and public health.
Then there should be no problem with the Fed paying to rebuild LA, right?Oh I'm sorry I thought that you meant Los Angeles.
With regard to oil, they should do the same thing. With regards to access, that resource is the property of the US by statute and by the fact that the Fed pays for its maintenance.

Then how would you get your oil fix?No I think it should be left to revert back to swamp and estuary. All that dikes built out of rubble and horse manure were built and paid for by the locals.
You plan on driving your car out there?Offshore rigs?

Okay, so you are going to take your boat out to the oil rigs, fill up, and return to shore to fill up your car's gas tank? You and everyone else that is currently supplied through the port of New Orleans?Long before we had cars we had boats. We still have them, don't we?
No that's how the crew gets out there. Product is sent through pipelines or transferred via ships, just as it is delivered now.Okay, so you are going to take your boat out to the oil rigs, fill up, and return to shore to fill up your car's gas tank?

mmkay, think about that for awhile and maybe a light bulb will go off in your head. Maybe rereading the thread will help.No that's how the crew gets out there. Product is sent through pipelines or transferred via ships, just as it is delivered now.
