Welcome to The Weekly Top 3 — our look at the top 3 things on our mind here at Alaskans for Sustainable Budgets — for the week of November 10, 2025.

This week, our top 3 issues are these: 1) we explain what, to us, seems missing so far from this year’s Governor’s race (2:02 ); 2) we explain what irritates us about how many in the Top20% support taxes (18:00 ); and 3) we review the Permanent Fund’s first quarter investment returns and what they tell us about the Permanent Fund Corporation’s performance (37:33 ).

The Weekly Top 3 is a regular weekly segment on The Michael Dukes Show. The Show broadcasts on Facebook and YouTubeLive as well as via streaming audio from the Show’s website weekdays from 6–8am. We join Michael weekly in the first hour of Tuesday’s show, from 6:25 –7am, for a discussion between the two of us about our three issues.
