As I recall Sewards folly was bought and paid for by the federal government. I would think mineral rights belong to all of us.</p> What I don’t understand is why Alaska keeps all that oil revenue.

Basically, she pulled a McCain, clearly showing that she doesn’t even understand what Fannie and Freddy were. She said they had gotten too big and were too costly to the taxpayer, implying that they were federal run and needed to be privatized(?) or…well, it didn’t make much sense at all unless she meant to say that they were too big BUT (a bailout) costs taxpayers too much (so let them sink).</p> <p>That isn’t what she actually meant or said, though it is confused given the two mutually exclusive statements (too big to fail BUT too costly to taxpayers, full stop).

She put the plane on e-bay and it didn’t sell. No bidders. She then ended up selling it for a loss to some rich business man.</p> Yup. She put the plane on e-bay and it didn’t sell. No bidders.
