    It's interesting that Alaska is by far the most "socialist" state in the Union...

    Alaska has no income tax, every Alaskan gets a check from the government every year.

    $1654 last year.

    And Sarah Palin was working as governor to maximize the size of that check.

    Howzat for socialism, eh?
