Big Government: Dismantling the NYT’s Misrepresentations of Governor Palin’s Record

Despite what the media and Governor Palin’s detractors say, her record has been effective and fiscally sound. It’s ironic that the New York Times’s attempt at journalism in highlighting misrepresentations of Governor Palin’s record comes shortly after they announced that they will be charging for access to their site due to shrinking readership.

Governor Palin faced challenges that no other Governor in the country had to face in terms of constructing a taxation regime that balanced the need to generate an appropriate amount of income from oil taxation to fund state government with the need to incentivize and encourage oil production.  This survey suggests that the tax regime she crafted and implemented has successfully balanced the conflicting interests at play.
