text: Like Roberta; Jimmy, let me put it in simpler terms.
  Reinbold is an Independent. Unlike Governor Walker who promised to cut government spending by 16% and supported the Goldsmith Plan until he later figured out that sleeping with the Democrats came with STD's. 
  Her constituents, the ones who elected her also supported the 16% cut to spending and the Goldsmith Plan; but unlike Walker she does not renege on her promise. 
  Now this disdain for the oil and gas industry is an interesting one considering what this industry has meant for the state and Alaskans. Replacing fossil fuel income with taxes isn't tit for tat; there aren't enough working Alaskans earning enough income to replace oil income; and restructuring the PF doesn't get us there either.
  I said, and let me be clear on this, Alaska's education system owes most of its livelihood to the oil and gas industry. Yes, our teachers work for the oil companies too!
