SO the economic downturn has finally hit Alaska. It is starting to trickle down and impact alot of Alaskans me included. Hopefully Obamas plan will help pull us out of this…although I for one am skeptical, not because he’s a democrat more because he’s a politician and they always seem to talk out of both sides of their mouth. Not sure how spending a boatload of money is supposed to help us dig out of this and how it will effect his pledge to cut the deficit.
