And they still take the biggest Federal handout per capita... Such a scam.


In Alaska, milk is $7.00/gallon. We need people up there to run the industries but the living is tough.

There are scams operated by the government far worse than Alaska.


Should not the companies that are in the industries then pay higher wages?


Well from their point of view, there is no reason to do so since the government is taking care of it.

I'm sure they'd gladly pay what is needed (and still profitable) if it came to that.


And live under the rule of Palin? Oh god no!
