Where has this mayor been, hibernating with the bears. When a leader elected by the people makes these kind of comments one cannot ignore the fact that this man is not the person for the job. It will take someone with outstanding leadership qualities and an educational background in the resources of fairbanks to really stand up and come up with solutions. What this individual is signaling is "my hands are tide i cant do anything about it" instead what he should be saying is I will conduct a symposium with our economic, energy, and governmental leaders to brain storm and find a solution. Whether its taxing the profits of big oil and making it illegal for them to pass on the cost to the consumer. Or invite alternative energy leaders to consult on alternatives. That is what a real leader is about.
