Obviously we disagree on the necessity of raising revenues to run our state.  Fiscally, I would argue that had we kept the income tax, as Jay Hammond and others argued when it was repealed, we would not be in half the mess we are in now.  The oil companies saw it is a good thing to make state finances dependent on oil revenues - we gave up our independence when we gave up the original income tax.     A tax on corporations is NOT a tax on Alaskans so I don't get what your point is.
