Abstract: Private Enterprise at Work on the Last Frontier - now isnt that an exciting title? Actually, this paper would be better entitled Gee, But Its Lonely Up Here, or Hurry, Winter is Coming Again, or Why Dont They Tell It Like It is? - or all of the above. Actually, its all of the above. First we will look 10 the Gee, But Its Lonely Up Here part. There are three primary reasons for such an impression, and they relate to the size of the stale, its location, and its degree of governtnentalization. Alaska is large. It contains 586,412 square miles (not acres) of land and represents an area equal to one-fifth that of the contiguous 48 states. If a map of Alaska were superimposed over a same scale map of the United States, Ketchikan would be in the Carolinas, and Point Barrow would be in Minnesota, while Attn would be near Los Angeles. The state is large enough to contain Texas twice, plus Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Vermont and Rhode Island with room 10 spare.
