The state government has a 3 billion dollar deficit. Fixing the state budget requires bold moves.
There are three basic steps required to put the state on a better, affordable footing. Like Cleveland and Boston one must cut a package deal. Intelligence is required- and boldness to act at the righttime instead of as dopy, toking forgetful, unconcerned legislators.
1) 10% state income tax
2) Cut the size of Government more
3) Move the capitol to Anchorage this year in very cheap office space
Close every state office in Juneau. Reduce travel costs to Anchorage and the capitol. Make the move temporary and in the long run share it with Fairbanks and a high-speed free, electric rail link of advanced tech.
The legislators can keep everything paperless. Support staff can work from home.
The Anchorage inflatable dome would be a good place to move the legislature.
