Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for July 26, 2022

Rat knows what are his fiduciary responsibilities.

And that’s what all corporations do.

I don’t believe that Rat has shareholders, because he never shares anything.

Did Rat use a do-it-yourself incorporation kit?

You know something’s wrong when shareholders can sue a company for doing something other than what’s in their own best interest.

According to the Supreme Court’s 2010 Citizens United v. FEC decision, there’s no legal distinction between corporations and actual human beings. In addition to that whopper, the decision also held that free spending was indistinguishable from free speech.

what kind of car would Goat have? I would picture him in an electric car, hence , no gas at all!

Well, Rat is a rat, after all. He’s bound to do well in the corporate world, or maybe politics.

Rat will be the first one leaving ship if Rat Inc. sinks.

Rat is a conscientious objector to supporting oil, solar, and electric companies.

Acquaintances of Rat can refuse to loan cars or anything else to Rat after seeing how he operates.Cannot be said for citizens and corporations.

How did Rat get a hold of your keys Goat?

Goat should know Rat by now!

He is like my brother, borrowed the car and it ran out of gas. His excuse " I did not know what kind of gas you use"!

I can understand “refilling the tank” if the tank was almost full when you got the car to borrow it and getting close to empty when you are ready to return it, but if it’s just for a short time and distance (and not much gas is used) …

With Rat around, tankfulness isn’t even a possibility. :D

Rat could be Zuckerberg

“It’s an electric”

Rat doesn’t do shareholders. He just likes to steal things.

It’s obviously a very healthy system when companies decide that customers don’t matter.

How can you tell that Monopoly is a game that somebody completely made up?

Because in the game the rich too have to pay taxes and can end up in jail.

Rats a taker….

Internalize profits and externalize costs.

That phrase sounds just as ridiculous in analyst meetings…

That’s why they call him Rat.

Because California gas is some of the most expensive in the country and literally no one wants to pay for it.

Enuff Rat – we want Crocs

Rat, Inc. – that could be the nickname for so many corporations!

Funny!

“corporations are rats”. The truest supreme court decision of them all!

It might better for the law to stipulate the long term interests. Screwing people over is NOT good for a business.

Maybe Rat, Inc. should meet really angry Goat, Inc. and learn that Rat, Inc.’s anger and aggression is NOTHING COMPARED TO TICKING OFF SOMEONE BY BORROWING THEIR CAR AND NOT REFILLING THE TANK!!!!

Rat: I saw a potential timeshare loophole regarding vehicles and seized the moment!

Rat Inc. is going bankrupt, and no one cares….
