I couldn't explain everything wrong with this mindset of "prices will skyrocket if we pay people a living wage!!!!!1!" mentality if I had a week and and a degree in economics.
Raising the middle wage will make us all rich via trickle up economics.
A good cartoon.
Liz, you're my favorite troll. (Don't tell Ironbite I said that.)

You know I can read right?

I'd be more sympathetic if people here didn't act like they knew what they were saying when they were saying something very much wrong.

Yeah, that's nice honey. Good to know why you won't pay taxes. Now, go re-pave the street out front, process our sewage, and stand guard all night in front of the house.

“To be GOVERNED is to be watched, inspected, spied upon, directed, law-driven, numbered, regulated, enrolled, indoctrinated, preached at, controlled, checked, estimated, valued, censured, commanded, by creatures who have neither the right nor the wisdom nor the virtue to do so. To be GOVERNED is to be at every operation, at every transaction noted, registered, counted, taxed, stamped, measured, numbered, assessed, licensed, authorized, admonished, prevented, forbidden, reformed, corrected, punished. It is, under pretext of public utility, and in the name of the general interest, to be place under contribution, drilled, fleeced, exploited, monopolized, extorted from, squeezed, hoaxed, robbed; then, at the slightest resistance, the first word of complaint, to be repressed, fined, vilified, harassed, hunted down, abused, clubbed, disarmed, bound, choked, imprisoned, judged, condemned, shot, deported, sacrificed, sold, betrayed; and to crown all, mocked, ridiculed, derided, outraged, dishonored. That is government; that is its justice; that is its morality."

If you're going to be an insane anarchist, first move to France and second learn to write properly.

We should also note that, by her logic, nobody should ever pay for anything. At least Proudhon recognised this - that all consistent anarchists must also be socialists. If you think all force is illegitimate, that means ALL force, not just the governments'.

Mainly because you aren't.

Also, I've met only a few atheists who think all religious beliefs should be taboo for discussion; most just don't want laws based on religion.

If you look at it logically, cannibalism has great potential to simultaneously solve our overpopulation and food shortage problems.

Correct me if my memory is faulty, but are we witnessing de-evolution in action by the change of font in "Liberal Logic101" meme post titles? Has it really been that cockeyed, slanty cartoonish style since the beginning?

I think they've used a variety of fonts from the beginning, but I may be wrong.

If there's a puppy or seal in my utereus, it's definitely going to get aborted.
