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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I will pay for these social programs, IF the government give us tax transparency. I don't trust my government nearly enough for them to not do some sort of corruption. Gotta know where the money went.
The concepts work a lot better if people are active participants in the governance of their communities instead of the government being some separate entity that dictates rules from on high.
Government cannot be for the people unless it is made of the people, and that is the largest flaw of our current system. Our government is not made of the people, it is made of the ruling class which only seeks to exploit people for power.
