The Weekly Top 3 (10.23.2023)
from The Weekly Top 3 Hosted by Alaskans for Sustainable Budgets
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 October 23, 2023. This week our top 3 issues are these: 1) in response to those who claim it’s the PFD at fault for the current earnings reserve “problem,” we do a side-by-side comparison of the payments made out of the earnings reserve for inflation proofing and the PFD over the past seven years (2:12); 2) we look at how changes in the labor force undercut the argument going forward that government spending is needed to create jobs (19:49); and 3) we take issue with DNR’s proposal to issue net profits leases in the Cook Inlet (37:07). The Weekly Top 3 is a regular weekly segment on The Michael Dukes Show. The Show broadcasts on Facebook and YouTubeLive as well as via streaming audio from the Show’s website weekdays from 6–8am. We join Michael weekly in the first hour of Tuesday’s show, from 6:25–7am, for a discussion between the two of us about our three issues.
