Why can’t Alaskans come to the realization that if we put all the money in the Permanent Fund, it would support all present and future Alaskans equally, not just those of us here during the oil years? This is not an entitlement; it was meant to support our government services so we wouldn’t have to pay a state income tax.
All of us benefit equally in this scenario, so stop this prejudice against future Alaskans and put all the money in the fund and make all Alaskans, present and future, equal in this endeavor.
