Wow, that's a really ignorant viewpoint. Obama's way: Take money earned by one group and give it another. Alaska's way: The natural resources belong to all Alaskan citizens, so they receive a share of the profits from the exploitation of the resources. Basically, the author of the article is lamenting that Alaskan citizens are able to make a profit off of something they own. So of course the author is defending Obama, socialists stick together. So, should we also get checks from the airplane companies since they are using our skies to fly their planes in? What about my boss? He owns a ranch and uses the natural lakes and streams on there to water his animals, which he then sells--hey! Those lakes and streams belong to all Texans! I should get a cut of his sells. 1) The skys do belong to the American people, but the Federal government doesn't have the right to do that. The Federal government only has the rights that are given to it by the Constitution. 2) Your boss OWNS the ranch. The people of Alaska get money from the oil drilled on STATE lands (The mineral rights of those lands belong to all Alaskans by their laws). If an Alaskan owned land and oil was discovered on that land, the oil would belong to the owner of the land. It's because the State of Alaska has given the mineral rights of State land to it's citizens that causes the Alaskan citizens to get some of the money the state gets from selling that oil to the oil companies. I hope that helps. 
So, it still boils down to a collective ownership of resources and COMMUNISM (  ) in the same way that raising taxes on people who make over $250,000 a year by a mere 3% is SOCIALISM ( )?
