A $1000 DOLLAR PRIZE IS  BEING OFFERED FOR THE
BEST (WORSE) EXAMPLE OF  WASTEFUL STATE SPENDING. 


The last budget of the 20th century spends more than $6.6 Billion,
including almost $2.3 Billion from the State's General Fund. Alaska
spends over $10,000 per capita, more than twice the national average. 

The budget includes essential programs and unnecessary pork barrel
spending  -   which is which? 

                              Let us know!!! 

Rick Halford and Lyda Green in cooperation with the Alaska Star and
the Frontiersman are offering a $1,000 reward to the Alaskan who
submits the  WORST expenditure in the millenium state budget. 

Most appropriate spending decisions are thoroughly discussed, but what
about the others? 

 With thousands of state employees and hundreds of thousands receiving
state  funds, no legislator can find all the fat. 

                              WE NEED YOUR HELP. 

Criteria for consideration include: appropriateness of spending, cost
per capita,  level of public review, abuse of political power and
conflicts of interest.
