Letters to the Editor

Letter: Surprise taxes

Curious how “large Permanent Fund dividend” proponents will feel when their tax bill comes due on the latest and largest PFD. Every recipient, including children, will continue to pay income (unearned) tax on that “gift.”

The larger the check, the larger the tax bill. Hope they calculated their rates and have saved some of that for Uncle Sam.
