7-14-16 This Governor’s Anti-Investor Actions Should Not Surprise Alaskan Citizens

The incumbent Alaska governor's anti-free enterprise, anti-investor actions should not surprise citizens for one minute: this is who the man is. For important reference of our readers, we provide the following link to our commentary and analysis nearly a year ago: Alaska's Governor Issues Bombshell Gasline Report This is who a majority of Alaskans elected a couple years ago: read the analysis and weep. Then mobilize to stop the insanity! -dh COMMENTARY: Veto of tax credit payments damages Alaska By: Benjamin Johnson Guest commentary Posted: Wed, 07/13/2016 - 10:40am [...]

7-12-16 Fiscal Crisis & Gas Pipeline 2001, “Lest We Forget”

We have a special treat for Alaskans and their Legislature today -- and, our Canadian readers. Scroll down for two commentaries, Christmas 2001, re: gas pipeline and fiscal crisis issues. "Lest We Forget" -dh Is our quotation from 2001 -- in response to Senator Dave Donley -- still applicable today? Comment: "Such is the nature of political struggle as governments become highly dependent on resource revenue or government grants, when resource prices fall and/or when rates of production and/or national revenues diminish. In such situations, political leaders should beware of becoming too [...]

ALERT ALERT ALERT HERE IS THE DOI LINK YOU'LL NEED HERE ARE THE ACTUAL NEW ARCTIC OCS REGULATIONS Cautionary note: The email alert we issued today indicated that we would have more to say in coming weeks about these Arctic OCS regulations. Our initial scanning of the regs today, did not lead us to immediate judgment. We deeply respect the work of Congressman Bishop (below) and his predecessor, Doc Hastings. However, on this issue of the Arctic OCS regs, study is required before reaching final conclusions. A respected friend with one of [...]

7-1-16 Much Alaska gas pipeline/LNG food for thought over the Independence Day weekend!

Yesterday we commented on the overall chaos enveloping Alaska as it seeks fiscal stability. Fiscal stability is a critical risk for big investments -- like a multi-billion dollar energy project. If fiscal stability does not exist, savvy energy investors must cease or postpone projects until risks become less threatening. Alaska Governor Bill Walker In such a caldron of multi dimensional issues, we see great political/emotional support for construction of an Alaska gas export project. However, the realities of world energy prices, high and unpredictable Alaska tax policy, a run-away spending history, and democrat leaders [...]

If Alaska's Governor Bill Walker were not conniving to convert Alaska into a sick, modern version of Hugo Chavez' socialist utopia, why would he be overspending, demonizing the state's biggest investors and seeming to move toward a takeover of various oil & gas leases and transportation and distribution systems? -dh Anchorage Daily Planet Editorial: Disaster in the making?

Wildrose blasts NDP over climate plan advertising, Calgary Herald ... per-capita greenhouse gas emissions in the fight against climate warming and to help the province win outside support for stalled pipeline projects ... NGP Readers: be aware that as the enviro-industrial-governmental cabal continues (i.e. via protests, confrontation, litigation, statute and regulation) to vilify and outlaw OCS activity, oil, pipelines, coal and nuclear energy projects, more reliance will fall on natural gas power generation. Now, the cabal is targeting nuclear but also natural gas. So when the inevitable market and political winds [...]

Energy Is The Very Foundation Of North American Freedom Eco-socialist Strategists Know That The Means, Transportation and Distribution of Energy Production Can Come Under Their Control Via Government Expropriation And/Or Regulatory Power by Dave Harbour Today we ask our readers to recognize the dots that connect socialism and eco-activism to the undoing of free energy markets and freedom itself. We will demonstrate why this transformation is not merely the natural swing, back and forth, of a political pendulum. Our readers can surely agree that: Freedom can be eliminated by eliminating free enterprise. [...]

5-21-16 Alaska Gas Project: When Does One More Straw Break The Camel’s Back?

Tim Bradner, NGP Photo by Dave Harbour 5-13-11 Tim Bradner of the AJOC brings us another Alaska gas monetization reality: wetlands mitigation (Story below). Higher but unknown additional mitigation/litigation costs cannot improve feasibility of AGDC's (https://www.agdc.us/) government investment in the Alaska LNG project (http://ak-lng.com/). Nor can such open-ended future expenses make the state's socialist equity investment in Alaska LNG more beneficial to citizens. This is precisely the type of uncertainty that leads project proponents to add additional contingency requirements to Financing Plans: uncertainty requires hedging as greater assurance of "project completion" to satisfy [...]

5-12-16 How The Federal Government Stole Alaska’s Statehood Birthright

Even if the federal government were to restore the natural resource birthright it has stolen from the 49th State, Alaskans would STILL remain challenged. For when its citizens enjoyed what seemed to be unlimited oil wealth 3-4 decades ago, it taxed more and spent more and more -- until it had developed an unsustainable lifestyle. So, we do hope that great leadership can free Alaska of the federal overreaching jurisdiction and violations of due process described below. But then, equally great leadership -- with disciplined citizen support -- must establish sustainable government services [...]

THE HILL: Energy will play a major role in at least five races that could determine control of the Senate next year. President Obama’s controversial climate policy is looming large in Ohio and Illinois, where the coal industry still employs thousands, while battle lines are being drawn in Colorado, pitting environmentalists against oil and gas companies over drilling.
