Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Just look at high tax countries, like Sweden, Finland, Norway. They are pretty functional, although not perfect, with pretty well-working social systems. Look at countries that are all about avoiding taxes like... the US. Look at the UK, and what Thatcherism did to it. Social services are falling apart, if still existing at all.

Whoever says taxes are a problem, implicitly says schools, streets, firefighters, ... should be privately owned. And guess who would be the private owners and what they are going to do with prices :)

Exactly. There's fact and there's fiction. It's to me no doubt that privatisation breeds enshittification
