Palin vs. Chavez
Imagine - a place where the state levies no taxes on individuals, but instead taxes oil companies a significant amount, and uses those revenues to support the government's own functions, and even to provide significant benefits worth hundreds or thousands of dollars to each citizen.
Is this Hugo Chavez's Venezeula? Or Sarah Palin's Alaska?
