Alaska's government squandered its 'take' on its natural resources and now it wants to kill Polar Bears. NO!!!!

Every political figure that ever ran for office, and this TYPICAL of Republicans, used the high income from the Alaskan natural resources of oil as if those wells were never going to dry up to be elected. They 'PAID' the people of the State a subsidy and BOUGHT elections.

Every elected official is GUILTY of it and absolutely at no point in time did ANY of them set up a Trust Fund for the people of Alaska to support their government or their well being. NOW, that is NOT the problem of the lower 48 OR the USA EPA OR the Polar Bears. That is the problem of a corrupt Republcan dominated party system in that state and they are all going to have to live with it now.

And NOT every drop of Alaskan oil comes down The Pipeline and NOT nearly most of the oil comes to the lower 48 states. It is sold to foreign markets. Alaska is not going to kill Polar Bears to continue to pollute our oceans no matter how much the Oil industry bellaches!

Bascially, TOO BAD. You did it all "W"rong in that state. Get over it and hope the Health Insurance Reform Bill give you all good coverage! We aren't paying for the Alaskan way of life for making the mistake of squandering your children's future on luxury and good times!

NO MORE Alaskan Oil Fields to destroy the natural biotic areas of our Wilderness. NO MORE!

On Monday, Alaskan state officials announced that the owners (click here) and operators of the bulk freighter, M/V Selendang Ayu, that sank off the north shore of Unalaska Island in the Bering Sea in 2004 have agreed to pay the state of Alaska nearly $850,000 to settle oil spill, wreck removal and lost fish tax claims.

This article from the LA Times is laughable. They show a picture of a Polar Bear in a class cage after a taxidermist got finished with it and then goes on to say how much land is devoted to the preservation of the species. The reporter writing on this subject has never even seen Polar Bear wild in the Arctic, guarantee you. And yet they can write all about it.

The Polar Bear under glass isn't even full grown. Polar Bears have 'range,' are 'territorial' and we aren't talking about a species that lives on land we are talking about a species that lives on ICE. AND. Is a Marine Mammal. It takes a lot of territory to support the GENETIC diversity of this species and the shipping channels to its territory in the USA need to be redrawn.

Critical habitat in Alaska is proposed for polar bears (click title to entry - thank you)

It would be the largest habitat zone in the U.S., but an Interior Department official says it wouldn't slow oil and gas development, nor address the melting sea ice that threatens the bears.
Reporting from Seattle - In what would be the largest habitat zone ever established in the U.S. to protect a species from extinction, the federal government on Thursday proposed designating 200,541 square miles on the coast of Alaska as critical habitat for polar bears....
