Re: Spreading the wealth....Socialism?

THE FACTS:
In Alaska, residents pay no income tax or state sales tax. They receive a yearly dividend check from a $30 billion state investment account built largely from royalties on its oil. When home fuel and gas costs soared last year, Palin raised taxes on big oil and used some of the money to boost residents' checks by $1,200. Thus every eligible man, woman and child got a record $3,269 this fall.


Spreading the Wealth Sarah? It seems to be in your nature...

Pay your taxes......our military men and women protecting your state needs it..Please quit depending on the rest of Socialistic America to pay your bill....Split the checks with every American......we are a part of America.......I would like a check from my royality being an American!

Good republican move. She treated their tax dollars as an investment and actually gave them a ROI. Pretty creative.

I don't believe Obama has promised us any royalty checks has he?

Correction: We pay no state income or sales tax. That doesn't mean we don't pay the federal income tax, which seems to be what you were implying. Sorry if I misread your post. :peaceful:

Creative? Bush must have gotten his idea from Palin. I got my $600 rebate check!...Hey TIE I never thought Raising taxes was a good Idea if you were a Republicon? Any wonder why Gas prices soared? Cons raised the taxes... I thought you wanted lower taxes and not a rebate check? Isn't that what Obama proposes? To rescind the Bush phony tax cuts to the rich and help the 98% of the working population?

Creative? It must cost a fortune to send out millions of checks back to the overtaxed! What a waste of time, money.....road to nowhere.....The economy suffered... This money could have been used and circulated in the economy many many times over on goods and services!

Barrack will do that. NO rebate checks. Clinton proved that balancing the budget!

Re: Spreading the wealth....Alaska is its own Country?

While the unique fiscal circumstances the state finds itself in at the end of this fiscal year warrant a special one-time payment to share some of the state's wealth, the payment comes at a time when Alaskans are facing rising energy prices. High prices for oil are a double-edged sword for Alaskans. While public coffers fill, prices for heating fuel and gasoline have skyrocketed over the last six months and are now running into the $5- to $9-a-gallon range for heating fuel and gasoline across several areas of the state."

In an interview with The New Yorker last summer Palin explained that she would make demands of a new gas pipeline "to maximize benefits for Alaskans": "And Alaska we're set up, unlike other states in the union, where it's collectively Alaskans own the resources. So we share in the wealth when the development of these resources occurs."


How nice of Palin to maximixe benefits for Alaskans"...This is why she will only be a governor! Greed, these resources are owned by all americans.....Here in the Midwest we grow corn for ethenol products...When the oil runs dry and we have no choice left but to go green we can pay everyone in the Midwest ROYALTIES and rake in as much as we can..


Alaska, sorry when it costs you 50$ for a box of corn flakes! Frosted flakes will be extra!

Actually, cities and villages in the Bush (rural Alaska) have been paying extremely high prices for basic necessities (food, fuel for heat, etc.) compared to the rest of the country for quite some time. This year is a little worse than normal though (for obvious reasons), which was part of the rationale behind the so-called "energy rebate".

And if you want to impose royalties on produce to help support the citizens of your state, by all means, do it. Our system has helped us compensate for the lack of industries that are really feasible up here.

Oh my! :surprised: Not the poooor innocent animal that was placed on the earth as part of the food chain. God forbid we eat meat. You must have an extensive collection of tree bark recipe books. Then again you could be a tree hugger. So a daily diet of dirt then? Of course you may be displacing the yellow headed North American Turd Worm. Maybe you should just starve so you don't upset the balance and create global warming...
HELP HELP, THE SKY IS FALLING

Get over yourself..............:naive:

Chev no prob if you hunt for your food but lots just do it for sport. Shoot clay pidgeons...


I agree. I don't like hunting for sport only. I believe if you are going to shoot it, you better darn well find a way to use nearly all of the animal. I believe in animal use not animal abuse. :wink2: BTW, that piggy in your avatar looks delicious. mmmmm bacon!!!

Your avatar fits your position well. Mr. Pork Barrel! If you could put some lipstick on that pig you would be right up to date.

You gave me another idea! I think I will buy a home in Alaska also! With that home and the home down in New Orleans - I will have it made. Free hand-outs where ever I am....

Hey paidslave - keep working - I need your tax $$ ! I am winking at you every time you see the deductions coming out of your check!

There is nothing like the sound of a pig squealing for his mama!
Oink! Oink!
Squeal baby squeal!

Hey Paidslave I posted this article just for you, yet you have not jumped on it at all. Why ?

Could it be because your handlers said it didn't matter ?
Why is it a foreign newspaper could find Obama's brother living in a roofless shack in Kenya and now another foreign newspaper found his aunt living in a Boston slum ?
Obama is a rich man, his wife's salary doubled the day he became a senator, don't you think if he could his wealth would first go to his family ?

Now its reported that ( god forbid ) his dear auntie is an illegal. She was ordered to leave 4 yrs ago. And that $260 she donated was done illegally, too.
Well Obama will just have to change the laws to keep poor auntie here, do you think he can find an empty room in his mansion for her ? Or will she have to share that roofless shack in Kenya ?

Re: Spreading the wealth....CARL MARX!

Maybe we can start calling Paidslave = Yul Gibbons:wink2:


If you would like to learn anything in your life HOAKTER you need to know what socialism is not. It is historically incaccurate to claim that Barack Obama is a socialist because he plans to make the federal income tax slightly more progressive. The idea is not one thought up by Karl Marx. In the Wealth of Nations, the bible of modern capitalism, Adam Smith wrote, "It is reasonable that the rich should contribute to the public expense not only in proportion to their revenue, but in something more than that proportion." So please, when you talk, try to make some sense and explain not only what you believe but what someone bigger than you believes as well. I dont know everything but it is reasonable to believe if you are making more you should contribute some of that back. We all should contribute in proportion to what we earn! Capitalism will still prevail! According to Marx, pure capitalism contained the seeds of its own destruction.

Pay your fair share and life will treat you very well!
