Sink or Ask For A Lifeboat With Full Dinner Service
TODAY'S STRIP
I'm madder than a tree frog stuck in the salt flats about how much abuse Prickly City and its author, Scott Stantis, take around here. While it's been suggested that the writers here are "obsessively juvenile," I would suggest that the more apt description would be Juvenal-ly obsessed, as they seem less interested in the substance of matters and more interested in the "panem et circenses" of instant gratification. It's enough to make me more upset than a liberal who spilt his Chablis all over his hemp rug from Afghanistan.
So on to today's strip, which finds the dove in coyote's clothing shaking down the state for a subsidy in order to survive his non-market-driven venture, as is typical of the left with their gimme gimme hands out. "Contemporary liberals have a bad habit of confusing social cohesion with the volume of government transfers, as if the coercive pattern of taking and giving was the measure of order and the test of our hearts, " as the distinguished policy analyst for the Cato Institute, Will Wilkinson, has stated, and that is quite evident in the absurdity of Winslow the fadloving liberal clown opening a lawn mowing service in the middle of the desert. Perhaps if it were an illegal alien lookout post it would survive - and even thrive - but the need to cut grass in an arid environment just says: give me a break.
