Welcome to The Weekly Top 3 - our look at the top 3 things on our mind here at Alaskans for Sustainable Budgets - for the week of April 10, 2023.
This week our top 3 issues are these: 1) why the House budget debate last week reminded us a lot of the old Jody Foster body swap film Freaky Friday (2:03); 2) why a recent op-ed by ISER economist Matt Berman hits the nail on the head about the regressivity of PFD cuts and also reminds of an important state fiscal advantage income taxes have over sales taxes (20:36); and 3) we discuss the various pieces of the recent oil tax proposals that appear to be moving forward (28:35).
