text: A sound fiscal plan like most states, is where the money will come from TTT. With no options removed from the table. That`s what this debate is all about.  A fair and progressive state income tax like we had before oil..needs to come back. That would have the side benefit of capturing a portion of the payroll off the slope that leaves Alaska every payday, heading instead to Oklahoma, Texas, North Dakota, and Louisiana.  Why should Texas get the income tax on money earned in Alaska? drilling Alaska oil? It shouldn`t, and it`s a fair source of revenue to add to the measure and debate about the benefit of reinstatement of the income tax in Alaska.
