We NEED the other half of our PFD's


We NEED the other half of our PFD's
The Issue
We the undersigned Alaska residents politely demand you return the monies you stole from us when you chose to take away half of our PFD's illegally.
Many Alaskans rely on our Permanent Fund Dividends annually to provide necessities, purchase long johns, socks, winter gear, and pay bills, (like medical necessities which have been covered by Medicaid/Medicare annually prior to recent egregious changes forcing patients to do without while placing us in a position of hardship making payments to medical professionals).
We elderly, disabled, struggling parents, bush residents, residents living paycheck to paycheck, understand "tight budgets" because we are struggling to survive on incomes "lower than the poverty level". Just how far do you think ten, one hundred dollar bills stretch each month Bill? You grew up here in Delta Junction...you may not remember us, however, we remember you. You should know better than to try to take unfair advantage of your classmates and constituents. In addition, we have been denied our annual cost of living increases again, despite the prices in Alaska INCREASING.
We need you to pay a penalty for breaking the law and stealing our money in the form of 30% interest per person, per month on the unpaid balances of our PFD's.
We need deposits posted no later than 1DEC2016 calculated thusly:
$1200.00x30%x2 (Oct&Nov) balance due 1Dec2016
$1200.00x30%=$360.00
$1200.00+$360.00=$1560.00
$1560.00x30%=$468.00
$1560.00+$468.00=$2028.00 due 1DEC16 per PFD.
Please read the comments for yourselves decision makers. Please do not make us wait until after 17Jan2017 for congress to be back in session.
