Do Alaksains really get $4000/year to be a resident?

Generally speaking, it depends on how profitable the person's Native Corporation is, and how that wealth is distributed.

Thanks for stopping by, Mr. Spelling Police Officer. I'm confident that your presence here has averted an orthological tragedy. You are truly a hero and your vigilance is deeply appreciated by all in our community, nay, in every community.

Toilet paper is expensive too. That's why we are careful not to pull but one square at a time form the roll. It must always be kept dry. We put the toilet paper in a large coffee can with the lid tightly pressed on top. I fear dropping the whole roll in the toilet sometimes, like I did with my cellphone

Anyway, I'm getting out of the fish business and setting up a store that sells laundry detergent ASAP.

Talking about fish, I have been thinking of entering my goldfish in the PFD system to get another PFD check. Will have to try next year, though

My sister, working in Public Service for the state, got a call the other day from a Californian planning to relocate to Alaska.

He is looking to get on the dole here, and was wondering if the state would pay to ship his piano north.

He was told "No, and you should obtain employment before moving here".

He should join the military, and enter his "home of records" as Alaska, then apply for a tour over here. The military would move his piano without any trouble.

Yuck. I hate cheap tourists.

If you can afford to come to POW to sportsfish, you have no business crying and complaining about the prices. If you think you can bully local businesses into giving you a discount, you're not only wrong, you're a wrong asshat.

How much money can you get on welfare there? Also do you get free medical and free Obamma phones too?

I'm thinking of retiring and going on welfare, and it would be great to move there and get paid, and have a nice lodge on a salmon stream. My state is really cheap so far as public money.

How much land and house can I get for about $400,000?

Will the stipend go up if gas goes up?

I don't care about $50 for laundry, I'll just do it in a stream, or do they have like food banks where you can get new clothes? Down here we can just get new clothes when the old ones get too dirty to wear.

Sounds like a great plan.
