I'm sure it's kind of a nice bonus. If you have 5 people in the house is just shy of 10,000$.

I think that might be a reason of the huge influx of people waiting for the PFD for living there. You have to be a resident for full year before you can receive it though.

I instantly thought about this when I read the title. Remembering all the "Not valid in HI and AK" fine print I see on everything.

When the pipeline runs dry does the PFD dry up as well?

that's been going on for quite awhile. A shipmate in 1981 said they got $500 back then.

Ouch. When I was stationed at Ft Wainwright I never noticed much use of natural gas. That was 87-91.

Pipeline is kinda running on borrowed time right now, They didn't expect it to last this long without rusting out and Corroding out. Many think the state will raid the fund soon.

The state constitution has all Alaska residents owning the mineral rights.  The oil companies pump it out and pay royalties to the PF.  You think the oil companies don't pay royalties or private land owners elsewhere?

My understanding this is not a tax on oil companies per say. What it is is that the oil companies are drilling for oil on state land. For every barrel they give a percentage to the state. The state uses that money to pay for all the states functions. What ever is left over goes to the residents of the state.

If that's the case folks in the lower 48 should get dividend funds to. How much of the land that is being tapped for oil is federal land? How much is that ocean is federal land? How many billions of dollars is a federal government give them and tax breaks and  money?

Lol no. Federal lands aren't subject to the state royalty tax. Also virtually none of the federal land is being drilled thanks to obongo and the greenies libs in charge.

Once all federal conveyances are
completed, the state will own 28.5 percent
of Alaska while Native Corporations will hold
title to 12.5 percent, leaving 58.6 percent to
the federal government, and less than one
percent in conventional private ownership.
