It’s not even really funded by tax revenue per se, it’s the capital gains from investments made with revenues from corporations paying government land leases for natural resource extraction. It’s not tax revenue raised from civilians via something like a state income tax or sales tax–neither even exists in Alaska.
- s1artibartfast 3y agoFair point. It is revenue but isnt tax revenue. My point was that it is payed with dollars already in circulation that come out of the pocket for whoever is paying the interest or dividend. this is starkly different than money which is printed into existence and expands the currency in circulation
- mckn1ght 3y agoOh I only wanted to add more context to show how it’s not really comparable to Canada’s proposition. I think your point is sound, should’ve explicitly stated that.
