Alaska should lead the nation in Per Capita Earmarks. 2/3 of Alaska
is owned by the other 48 states locked up in 5 very large military
installations and parks of one kind or another.
Why shouldn't the federal government pay to upkeep its facilities?
The total area of the parks alone is something like 18 times the size
of Illionois and 60 times the size of Delaware.
