text: Without tax breaks , why should oil companies even stay in Alaska ? They are treated better in third world countries.   How can they plan for anything when whining Alaskan's want to change the tax system all the time ?   For years oil has paid 90 percent of our bills yet democrats have cried wanting them to pay even more .  If I were oil companies---I'd say to heck with Alaska and pull out.  We Alaskan's have become blue eyed Arab's who want everything for free . We scream to kill the golden goose . How will Alaskan's get " their oil " without oil companies ?  We deserve a sinking state.
