The Weekly Top 3 (12.8.2025)
Tuesday, 9 December, 2025
Welcome to The Weekly Top 3 — our look at the top 3 things on our mind here at Alaskans for Sustainable Budgets — for the week of December 8, 2025.This week, our top 3 issues are these: 1) we explain why neither the “fair share” nor “all we need is more development” sides of the oil tax debate is addressing the issue in the way the Constitution does and the Legislature should (2:15), 2) we discuss a recent op-ed by Larry Persily: while he explains that he understands that Alaska has developed a K-shaped economy, he doesn’t seem to get that he and others who advocate for deep PFD cuts are a big part of the reason for it (19:35), and 3) after reviewing recent news reports, we explain we explain why the Bishop for Governor campaign seems to lack any appreciation of the most critical issue facing the state (39:22).The Weekly Top 3 is a regular weekly segment on The Michael Dukes Show. The Show broadcasts on Facebook and YouTubeLive as well as via streaming audio from the Show’s website weekdays from 6–8am. We join Michael weekly in the first hour of Tuesday’s show, from 6:25–7am, for a discussion between the two of us about our three issues.
