If the oil companies are required to pay stipends to the State of Alaska for all of its citizens even though 90% of the oil is on FEDERAL land, then

WHY aren't the coal companies required to pay stipends to the people in such States as WVA, KY, and PA.
SIN EATERS--We take the moral excrement we find in this equation and we bury it down deep inside of us so that the rest of our case can stay pure. That is the job. We are morally indefensible and absolutely necessary.

    They might be, but if they're not then it's probably because we don't have politicians as shrewd as those in Alaska.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.
