Capitalism sucks, but there are worse things than democracy

 







In my flurry of t-shirt designs, most of which involved the clerk manifesto cafe, and a few "Library Card Cafes" for yesterdays missive, I did make a couple "capitalism sucks" cafe designs as well. These were a reference to a bit from my weekly cartoon from 30 years ago where I pretended to sell very expensive "Capitalism Sucks" t-shirts. And why not? It's a fine bit of satire standing the test of time!


Anyway, here's one or two of these designs:


















































I know, so cute!



I'm not sure though how much punchy economic criticism I was going for here though. These might be as much a fit of pique over how I keep making t-shirt designs and want to order more t-shirts but can't quite afford it because I keep buying more and more tools to help me make better and better t-shirt designs.

Is this Capitalism's fault?



Probably. Most things are. But I've got some of my own things going on here too.


Ah well.


If I get really down about it, I can head on over to my local clerk manifesto café and grab a cup of coffee.



For like, eight dollars!

If you were wondering, yes, you should comment. Not only does it remind me that I must write in intelligible English because someone is actually reading what I write, but it is also a pleasure for me since I am interested in anything you have to say.

I respond to pretty much every comment. It's like a free personalized blog post!

One last detail: If you are commenting on a post more than two weeks old I have to go in and approve it. It's sort of a spam protection device. Also, rarely, a comment will go to spam on its own. Give either of those a day or two and your comment will show up on the blog.
