8-30-16 Alaska Once Thought (Erroneously) It Was Impervious To Competition – Alberta Is Learning The Same Lesson

Learn From History, Not The Hard Way by Dave Harbour An oil patch can become so proud of itself that it loses the competition, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. How does it do this? A fossil fuel producing area becomes uncompetitive by jacking up taxes and royalties to the maximum.
