So these comments are mine but if you go to the site the artist comments on the strip. Not all the time but definitely more frequently in the last few years over early on. This is sorta a common shtick I see where the progressive ideals are secretly for personal greedy reasons. I always love it. It is funny because I do see progressive causes from a greedy perspective. I would like all the people I interact with as I move through society to be educated and healthy. I like public spaces. I like well maintained infrastructure. and I’m not afraid to pay taxes for it, provided taxes are collected progressively. People should be able to make a decent wage.

    I meant the type of rich that you can’t get without massive exploitation, the “If I paid people livable wages, my wealth would collapse” type of rich, know what I mean?

    But you raise a good point. That is a distinction to be made.
