Calvin & Hobbes explains Corporate America. Only one thing has changed in the 20 years since.

“Calvin & Hobbes Explains Corporate America To You . . .(The irony is this comic strip is about 20 years old).”

Make that 30 years, since I blogged this up 10 yeas ago, now . Am I getting old?

Occupy This.

The joke is all this talk of Free Market? As many others have pointed out, we subsidize the hell out of big business. We the People sometimes even cover their losses (though, generally, we make our money back).

Only thing that’s changed? Panel 6—our once strong middle class, upon which we built our nation’s greatness, get paid worse these days, even if costs of living have gone up.
