“When the rich plunder the poor of his rights, it becomes an example for the poor to plunder the rich of his property, for the rights of the one are as much property to him as wealth is property to the other, and the little all is as dear as the much.
“It is only by setting out on just principles that men are trained to be just to each other; and it will always be found, that when the rich protect the rights of the poor, the poor will protect the property of the rich. But the guarantee, to be effectual, must be parliamentarily reciprocal.”

Could someone like Chip grasp a complex concept like this?
For your information, ALL money is fake. It doesn’t matter if it’s gold coins or paper bills or figures on an electronic account. Money is just a concept, an accepted fiction.

Not to worry, Chip.
YOUR GUY is supplying the same leadership on the economic front as he is for the protests and the pandemic.

Maybe Kelly Loeffler? Oh wait, she’s a Republican Senator, so it’s okay to be a criminal.
Also, you get a death penalty for an alleged $20 fake check?

Error(?) in cartoon: While the cop is kneeling on the “suspect”, the latter is still being allowed to breathe.

Back up. George Floyd was never charged with passing fake money. The police were too busy executing him for being black, and simply being there.

A rather moronic cartoon from Bok … “Up” to his low standard?

Steven Mnuchin has, in his terms of employment, specific rules about having his face ground into the pavement or a knee to his neck.

This is just Bok following the prescribed orange line to blame Powell and the Fed for the disastrous economy. Simple-minded but not unexpected.

Trillions for billionaires and corporations but no money for a coherent Federal Testing Program which is why the USA is in such distress.

From David Brin’s FB:
“When the rich plunder the poor of his rights, it becomes an example for the poor to plunder the rich of his property, for the rights of the one are as much property to him as wealth is property to the other, and the little all is as dear as the much.
“It is only by setting out on just principles that men are trained to be just to each other; and it will always be found, that when the rich protect the rights of the poor, the poor will protect the property of the rich. But the guarantee, to be effectual, must be parliamentarily reciprocal.”

Typical Bok reaction: About the wrong thing, and wrong about that too.

We can print more money, but not print more lives of those who were murdered.
