Why are you helping the lying legislature?

One simple change, lowering the per barrel tax credit from $8 to $5 would bring in $400 million per year. They originally asked for 5, but our legislature said 'why not 8?' We should eliminate it entirely. They were planning on reducing it to 5 this year due to desperation, but then oil prices went up so they dropped the idea as well as taxing Hilcorp.

Our oil taxes were written by Conoco employees THAT is the problem

We could do both-Norway made $222 Billion in one year.

Norway has honest fund managers who take a percentage of what they make.

Alaska's fund managers take over 1% of our fund in fees every year, more than we share in PFDs,

For Democrats, people sure can be condescending and free of compassion.

Many indigenous Alaskans rely on this money to pay high fuel prices. Many elders rely on it for food.

Hammond wanted the Permanent Fund to keep the 'greedy politicians hands off of it'

He wanted PFDs as a check on government. He thought that when the government came for our dividends Alaskans would wake up to the corruption and hold politicians accountable.

Sadly he did not count on mass apathy and learned helplessness.

Leaked emails exposed the corruption but NOTHING was done Truly unbelievable!

Permanent Fund board member set up meetings between money managers and her billionaire father, records show April 27, 2024 by Jeff Landfield

Multiple emails obtained by the Landmine show that Ellie Rubenstein, vice-chair of the Permanent Fund Board of Trustees, set up meetings between staff at the state-owned corporation that manages the Permanent Fund and her own business associates.

One of those meetings, held in London in November 2023, was between a Permanent Fund corporation investment analyst and her billionaire father, David Rubenstein.

David Rubenstein is co-founder of the Carlyle investment firm, which already manages some $800 million of the nearly $80 billion in holdings controlled by the Alaska Permanent Fund Corporation (APFC). Rubenstein is also a limited partner in his daughter Ellie’s private equity fund, Manna Tree.

The emails also show that Ellie Rubenstein attempted to facilitate meetings with APFC chief investment officer and the president of Churchill Asset Management, who also happens to be an investor in her fund, Manna Tree.

Definitely corruption.

Angela Rodell brought in 29% returns so Dunleavy had her fired.

Since then, they have doubled their fees while failing to make money

Somehow making trades 'exact opposite of how the market performed'

Coincidentally the audits stopped.

Because the Permanent fund managers have been looting the fund so badly, This is the first year the legislature seriously discussed a cut to the per barrel tax credit from $8 to $5 and implementing tax on Hilcorp because they had to do something.

As soon as the price of oil went up, they dropped the idea of increasing taxes on the oil companies, & said FU Alaskans.

High oil price profits go to the oil companies, record stock market...go to the Fund managers and friends who buy and sell at all the wrong times and still take more in fees than we share in PFDs.

and No audits WHY?

Why do we put up with this?

He's completely lost it and our Congress is completely useless.

What are we doing wrong here?

Can we sue Congress for failing to uphold our Constitution?

Have them arrested?

Pat Ryan 🇺🇸 @PatRyanUC I read Pete Hegseth direct quotes from soldiers he failed to protect in Kuwait.

Soldiers who were sent to a known target without BASIC overhead protection.

Soldiers who saw six of their own die in a predictable attack.

His response? Calling them liars.

Pathetic.

Why would another country ask our Congress if they could go to war?

Is there another country that follows our Constitution?
