Alaskans for a Sustainable
Budget
Walker looks to Legislature to finally use Fund to fix budget gap
A paramount year is shaping up for Alaska.
Seriously, our jaw just hit the floor. "That said, the governor ...
noted the state has public retirement funds of more than $25 billion
that could find the [#AKLNG]
project to be a sound investment." #aklng Wow.... Why are Alaskans even supporting this piece of “That said, the governor also noted the state has public retirement funds of more than $25 billion that could find the project to be a sound investment.” He wants to rob Alaskans pensions on top of taking the PFD’sTo fund his LNG Gasline to Nowhere 2017 740,000 people. 615,000 (2017) were paid. Enough to pay
700,000 was withdrawn. $1,200 went to “He
Who Shall Not Be Named” totals $738,000,000 Million. Now for the
kicker, enough was taken out to pay 700,000 people. 85,000 people
did not get their PFD’s.
Add in one of the biggest PFD’s to be paid out here in 2018.
$2600.00 it was suppose to be this year and he plans on taking
$1400.00 from every Alaskan and from many that didn’t file he will
take the full $2600.00 to fund Governments overspending. You do the
math on how much he is planning on stealing to fund his overbloated
feel good budget..... |
Alaska Beer on the
Last Frontier: Craft Brewers of Alaska
Manitoba restaurant charges $15 for Bud Light to promote craft beer
instead Prairie Firehouse in Brandon has decided to charge $15
for a regular-size can of Bud Light -- double or more the price of other
suds on the menu.
Alaska CHARR, here’s an idea for you. Alaska could see a change in the craft brew market. This looks like it could really make a difference.....

Alaska Permanent Fund
Defenders
Time to sign up for the PFD again. IT'S ALSO TIME TO SIGN UP TO HELP
STOP THIS RAID! Have you sent a small amount of your PFD to join
Permanent Fund Defenders' fight
to save the PFD in 2018? Why do that? Because Alaskans have not been
voting and involved in big numbers. So, the PFD cuts continue this year.
We need a massive number of voters contacting politicians and voting
this year to win this fight for the People's money! Permanent Fund
Defenders will use funds for a STATEWIDE MEDIA CAMPAIGN to inform and
fire up Alaskans to contact legislators AND vote in big numbers to
defend and restore the PFD. IN 2018, Alaskan voters must demand a PFD
constitutional amendment vote (on the SJR1 bill). We will make sure
Alaskan voters across the state get the message in media on what
politicians support this amendment and restoring the full PFD money.
Thanks for joining this fight with your donation and volunteering to get
the message out to Alaskans. Visit www.gofundme.com/pfdak to
help. PLEASE SHARE!! Get out and Vote Politadick |

Alaska hospitals experience IV fluid shortage
The shortage has its roots in Puerto Rico, where almost all the IV
fluids that are used in the U.S. are manufactured in a single lab which
was heavily damaged during Hurricane Maria. If the government in Puerto Rico wasn’t so corrupt and had put all the money they get into infrastructure and it’s people, instead of their personnel bank accounts. This would never have been an issue. Maybe some of that unused crime lab Alaska has can be converted into a manufacture for saline. It’s not like they are using it for anything else and could use the money to pay for it to exist. Politadick |

Alaskans for a Sustainable
Budget Juneau Empire
Governor says Alaska’s deficit will not be fixed in 2018 Gov.
Bill Walker is an optimist, but even he thinks Alaska’s
multibillion-dollar budget deficit won’t be resolved this year.
Talk about burying the lead. Down in the fifth graph, the following story says that, "[a]s a side effect [of the Governor's plan], the Permanent Fund Dividend would be permanently cut." That is the only time that consequence is discussed in the entire story. https://goo.gl/nCuaPs Classifying the PFD cut as a "side effect" may correctly capture the view from the perspective of the localized Juneau bubble (which likely is laser focused on increasing government revenues regardless of the means), but at least as far as the overall Alaska economy and Alaska families are concerned, the effect is much more than that. Indeed, from those perspectives the Governor's proposal to cut the PFD is not only the lead, it is, in fact, the entire story. Alaska is in a recession. In analyzing various "new revenue" options last year, ISER concluded that cutting the PFD has the "largest adverse effect" on the overall economy (both jobs #and income) and is "by far the costliest measure for Alaska families" of all of the options. Using that option makes the recession worse for the overall economy and Alaska families than any of the other so-called new revenue alternatives. Put differently, from the perspective of the overall Alaska economy (both jobs #and revenue) and Alaska families an income tax would be better, so would a sales tax. At least from an income perspective, so would making certain additional types of spending cuts. Cutting the PFD is worse than all of those. Yet that is the very course the Governor (as well as the Alaska Senate and House) have chosen to pursue, in the middle of a recession no less. The course that has the "largest adverse impact" on the overall Alaska economy and is "by far the costliest measure for Alaska families." Attempting to categorize that as a "side effect" misses the fundamental point. According to the non-partisan experts who have looked at the issue the closest, the Governor's proposal makes the overall Alaska economy and the situation for Alaska families worse, not better. Especially given that Alaska is in a recession, why he has chosen to go down that road instead of others is the story itself, not a "side effect."
Also He is pushing behind the scenes to get the Salmon initiative in place to keep the budget at a financial loss. Politadick |
