text: We don`t pay an income or state sales tax in Alaska..sir.. so what "taxpayers" are you speaking about?  The ones that work in Alaska but take the money back and pay a Texas income tax on money they made in Alaska?
  Some of us believe we need to start paying our way,..  some of us think that things like homeless vets somehow still matter.  Some of us feel we`d have more skin in the game with a moderate state income tax.  It is also the least regressive.   But I`ll reiterate. I don`t pay a sales or an income tax.. do you?
