Ironically, there's also a name for this exactly political and economic philosophy: Baath Socialism. In Baathist economics, if you made it, you get to keep it or sell it; if you just found it and it was there before you got there, it belongs to everybody.

So technically, the Alaska government isn't just socialist, it's Baathist. I'm amazed at how many very political people I know are just learning this.
