I agree with Philip Rolfe. I don't think what we as Alaskans charge the oil companies for pumping our oil is a tax. This is simply a fee and it should...

...and public relations firms in the world can't put the oil back in the ground for us (or them) to sell again; it's simply gone. It's time that we raise the rent against the day that our oil fields will sit vacant. Philip Rolfe Juneau
