A pittance, if that, to appease the welfare types...

Make no mistake, the bulk of PFD funding will go to feed the **welfare monster** created by the pols over the last 4 decades. And the all the new taxes will ensure fewer folks move up here...

Consider this - there is one NGO/non-profit for each 750 residents, and this number of NP (who all feed at the public money teat) has been growing at about 10% a year.

You got out while the getting was good. My son escaped to Texas last year. I’m looking at Boise right now, before the real estate market crashes.

To help things, the Army is pulling about 4K troops out of Ft Rich - hard times are coming locally, if nothing else, and a tiny PFD payout will make no difference....

Look up what Alaska became in 1995/96.

When I was last checked, ~80% of the PFD was from the earnings of the fund and ~20% was from the oil.

Things are looking up militarily in the interior! More troops on Fort Wainwright. More fighter jets in Eielson AFB. Clear AFB is going to be adding radar capability. Not so bad up here!
