My last trip to Alaska

Congratulations, I won't be coming back to visit Alaska. I have
had it with greedy Alaska communities taxing tourists. At least
the cruise ships provide a useful service other than taxing oil,
taxing tourists....
Alaskans = TAXES.
I gather since Alaska gets $2 in federal income tax for every
$1 they send in, and they tax the oil I buy so much they can
give residents $1000 just for breathing.... Give me a break...
I gather you will be taxing e-mail next..
Isn't Ketchikan the place they were going to build a million
dollar bridge for 50 people?
Good night
