Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for September 16, 2019

With current issues in commercial “research”, I wish this was just a political joke.

And thus we have deregulation in action.

Republicans all believe in trickle down economics.

They also believe no colluson, no obstruction.

The guy with the red balloon looks familiar. Isn’t he one of the Mafia guys that Wiley draws not so un-regularly?

They may have over-estimated the benefits of inflation.

At least he still held on to the balloon. That had to lessen the impact some, right?

oh, at least the balloon held up.

Sorry, but that anti-gravity theory was already proven by a guy in Sen Pedro , Ca with a lawnchair and 45 balloons.

Tomorrow we try 2 lift assists. A work in progress and an application of trial balloon theory

Trickle Down LabUrinal kinds of trouble with that concept.

Those aren’t raindrops falling on your head.

Sort of like Trump and the GOP’s tax cut.

Like in drug labs….what are they thinking?

Profit always trumps public safety. And the public will always pay tp clean up the mess while the criminals get away with the cash.

Oh, you mean the sainted GMOs really are just as good as actual food?

Tis the basis for all GOP economic theory. Did the Great Tax Heist, highly touted to trickle down to the less fortunate amongst us, actually happen? The only thing that trickled down was the larger tax bill the rest of us will have to pay when the tax man cometh. We done been ’chumped" again.

This is exactly like the grand “experiment” now being carried out by the regressives who deny anthropogenic climate change. How many killer storms, floods, droughts, and the like will it take for the anti-science crowd to “call it a day” and try to ameliorate the looming disasters?

Or do we all simply drop out of the door onto the street like the toon shows?

Hasn’t “Trickle Down” been changed to “Tinkle On?”

Purdue Pharma goes splat on the ground below, leaving 50 states unable to recoup the cost of the human tragedies caused by the company’s lies about OxyContin. The Sackler family sails away with its profit-filled balloons. Yup, capitalism at its finest, all right!

These guys were in charge of R&D at Acme for the longest time.

Their Rules for Chemistry and Biology are more of a concern to me.

But “the principle is sound.” It doesn’t work, but “the principle is sound.”

Everybody complains about gravity, but no one does anything about it.

Nine out of ten focus groups found this cartoon funny.

I hope he landed on Pennywise.

“There are two possible outcomes: If the result confirms the hypothesis, then you’ve made a discovery. If the result is contrary to the hypothesis, then you’ve made a discovery.” —Enrico Fermi

If corporations start acting like governments, we’re in deep, deep  doody. And, I do see examples of it here and there, though mostly the engineers and lower level folk seem to be reasonably attached to reality. So far.

Wouldn’t most Corporations have the Dumpster Under the door?

With a 6 inch layer of Slime in the bottom.

Gravity deniers now?

Oh look, climate change research at work!
