Dividend is the strongest protection for the Alaska Permanent Fund. No. It's the people.

Dividend is the strongest protection for the Alaska Permanent Fund

The post lists many ways that politicians can lay their hands on the Alaska Dividend Fund. The author claims that the dividend is the strongest protection for the Fund.

"The dividend, as Gov. Jay Hammond intended, has been the Permanent Fund’s first line of defense for the last 35 years. It has created a constituency making it political suicide to go after its billions."

No. No. No.
Dividend cannot protect the fund.
It is the people who can protect the fund.
Alaskans --- what do you say? Do you still want to own your country? Or do you let politicians own your country?

A citizen dividend needs protectors like this:
