text: Not to worry. The entire state of Alaska is now considered a 'green space' to be kept from development. Consequently there will be no new oil to pay for everything, even when oil prices rebound. We'll have less and less oil every year. Nothing can or will replace the many billion$ Alaska is accustomed to getting from oil companies. Government services will be cut. New taxes on Alaskans with jobs will be levied. PFD checks will shrink. People will one again be leaving their house keys on the counter and walking away from their lives in Alaska. Except this time there's no bottom. And rebounding oil prices can't save us. But the roads will be less crowded.
