Anybody Up for Saving an Economic Soul?

I cannot provide a better example of how an honest soul’s desire to do good has been corrupted/brainwashed by the educational/media/government complex to achieve the opposite.
If you click on his comics you’ll see just how confused he is, which I think is representative of many confused youth in our societies.
Regardless, all hat tip Tatsuya.

He’s just confusing corporate interventionism with free market capitalism.
It’s a common error, and the Statist lefties love the mistake; it keeps people off *their* meddling case.

Eh, hardly that objectionable. He sounds like he is an anarchist.

Cheers, Cap’n. I’ve been enjoying Sinfest for a couple years now. It’s a great web comic. Some of his bailout commentary I thought was shrewd, and then he loses the plot.
Corporations in bed with politicians are one of the most abhorrent things this capitalist can think of. But the politicians and corporations deserve equal billing on the marquee of evil.
Down with Bombardier!

I wish the Captain would lose that chip off his shoulder. Seriously.

Look, I don’t know what to tell you if you’re looking for economic or political wisdom from a comic; too many young people nowadays seem to be making that mistake, either with crude, incoherent agitprop like V For Vendetta or with Jon Stewart. Hell, you can’t even expect sense from 900 words in a newspaper’s opinion pages – why expect it from a dozen word bubbles over four or five black and white panels?

You know, he’s a young guy. God knows I had some seriously deranged ideas when I was young. But I have to admit that his take from two weeks earlier http://www.sinfest.net/archive_page.php?comicID=2952
tickled me even though I knew the root cause came from Congress.
