Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for June 21, 2019

Very nice… I’m sure there is a “Church of Truth” as well.

Love the “Trickle Down Wealth Ride”

Love how Wiley parodies that old “trickle down” snake oil scam that has never worked.

Didn’t work under Hoover. Didn’t work under Reagan.

Didn’t work under Bush. Not working under Trump.

Or maybe it has worked perfectly for its true purpose — just the way they designed it — to REDISTRIBUTE the wealth produced by middle class working people to the few richest elites who already have the most while pretending it is supposed to help working people and the middle class.

It does NOT work the way scam artists try to sell it to gullible suckers.

It works perfectly to enrich billionaire CON men.

Deep fried butter is better for you than trickle down.

Shouldn’t it called Trump State 0f Mind Fair.

Well, it is getting to be Fair Season, after all….

What? no smoking chamber?

This could be Arkansas, Oklahoma, Alabama, Mississippi or Louisiana; considered the five unhealthiest states in the US.

Hey, I’ve been to the Los Angeles County Fair. Sounds about right, really. The only difference is they have this ginormous “miniature” train at the fair. Last time, I went there, the theme was Route 66. It was actually quite cool. :-)

Oh, and they sell “unicorn legs.”

Next to the “Flat Earth Science Pavilion” is the “Pro-Diseaser Pavilion” (a.k.a. the anti-vaxxers).

Willful ignorance needs all the comfort food it can get.

Where’s the cheeseburger toss booth?

the location is the White House lawn

the meat of the matter!

I was shopping with my friend when we saw some processed kale chips for sale. I just said that potatoes were also a super food at one time and look at what they’ve done to them.

And Art Laffer gets a medal from Trump.

Trump hands out Medals of Freedom like they were top secret clearances.

Oh, and…

Of course the “Trickle Down Wealth Ride” is perfectly safe for the average fairgoer: only 2% of the patrons actually ride it while everyone else stands in line until the park closes, dreaming that maybe on some future visit they’ll be one of the lucky few to be able to climb on board. Meanwhile their kids are sitting in the shade, following the riders on Instagram…

Not shown is the “Climate change is fake news” booth

Getting a bit of a “They Live” vibe here…

Looking at most people in the US alone I believe this scenario is fact!

The Food Police are achieving their aim. People are getting terrified of eating anything but KALE! People throw away perfectly good food because somehow it will kill them today although it was fine yesterday. Some young lad online asked if he should throw the head of lettuce away because it was on the counter all night. No concept that it was out in the SUN FOR 3 FREAKING MONTHS, GROWING! All bow done to the Food Police.

Funny thing is that I started the Low-Carb KETO plan during the Winter, having NEVER BEEN ABLE to lose weight for YEARS, and since then, I’ve dropped 35+ pounds! Lots of meat, eggs, cheese, green veggies, and FATS!! Just no carbs…

By the way… the toon is showing a Republican NIRVANA!!! Low-watt goobers believing whatever they are told…

Mmm…chocolate!

Wait, wait, wait. Shouldn’t that one sign say “Fat Earth Science Pavilion”??

Socialism is the ISM dismalist of all.

Looks like the scene outside the Amway Center last Tuesday.

I’m very interested in the chocolate weight loss booth

“Trickle-down economics” means you get a warm feeling when rich people piss on you.

Just one question: WHO THE HE!! WANTS TO EAT HEALTHY DONUTS?? (BTW, when did the phonetic spelling of donuts become accepted? It’s been a while since I’ve seen “doughnuts”. . .)

Wiley, who once drew for the Greensboro N&R, has captured the NC State Fair in perfect photo-realism.

Where is the “Socialism Works” arena?

Fat IS good for you and essential for good health. This has been known for quite some time now.

Where’s the main stage where we can see our Commander in Sleaze continue to shout “No Collusion! No Obstruction!”?

Where’s the Covfefe Explained tent?

Your State Fair, Underwritten and supported by Fox News…The news source for Neanderthals everywhere.

What? No MLM booths?

I don’t but is there a smoking chamber

Where’s the Clean Coal pavillion?

About the only con Wiley missed was the Nigerian get rich quick scheme.

YOU are CONSTIPATED.

Just like my comment in today’s GLASBERGEN CARTOONS.

“FAT IS GOOD 4 U” – depends on the type of fat.

Should be a “Rampant Relativism” booth in there….

Join the flat Earth Society!! They now have branches all around the World!!!

fat IS good for you though… it’s sugar that is the real culinary villain

Actually, fat is a lot less harmful than the extra sugar added to replace the flavor removed with the fat; turns out, it’s not fat that makes you fat, it’s excess sugar.

The Trickle Down scam was mentioned in William Jennings Bryan’s famous “Cross of Gold” speech in 1896.

There are two ideas of government. There are those who believe that, if you will only legislate to make the well-to-do prosperous, their prosperity will leak through on those below. The Democratic idea, however, has been that if you legislate to make the masses prosperous, their prosperity will find its way up through every class which rests upon them.

Henry Ford obviously understood Bryan when he provided a wage to his workers that would allow them to own a car, too. I don’t think he got any poorer for doing that.

Where’s the refreshing restrooms?

That Trickle Down ride leaves the victims wet & stinky.

It also egresses into the Parking Lot so that you’d have to Pay to get back in.

Where is it? Where is it?

Flat Earth SCIENCE?

I have been eating a few ounces of dark chocolate most days after lunch. It helps me not snack before supper, and in fact is part of a change in my behavior that is helping me lose a little weight. So far, anyway.

Where’s the global food warming oven ?

Forgot the Illusion OF Equality ride.
