Principle #3:Economic Growth is a Double Edged Sword
• Growth Brings Outsiders– Walmart– Safeway– Wells Fargo
• National Trends Toward Consolidation– BP/Amoco– Phillips/ARCO/Marathon
• National Trends Toward Devolution– DELL– Auto Manufacturing

Strategy #4: Managing Fiscal Policy
• Fair• Sustainable• Realistic• Gradual• Complete
• Strategic• Flexible• Efficient• Stable• Transparent
Institute of Social and Economic Research, University of Alaska Anchorage
Strategy #4: Managing Fiscal PolicyThe Alaska Disconnect:
Best Case Scenario Assumptions
• New Basic Sector Jobs in Anchorage• New Workers have Families• Families Use Local Services and State
Transport Services• Families Pay Their Share of State & Local Taxes• New Development Pays it Pro Rata Share of
State and Local Taxes
Institute of Social and Economic Research, University of Alaska Anchorage
Strategy #4: Managing Fiscal PolicyThe Alaska Disconnect:
Best Case Scenario Fiscal Results[ Excludes PFD]
• Each New Basic Job creates a $1,100 Annual Burden on Public Finances– Revenues = $5,200– Expenditures = $6,300
• Local Government Net Benefit = $300• State Government Net Burden = $1,400
