  • It isn’t comic sans though. It looks sort of like comic sans but it’s much cleaner.

    It’s difficult to tell really because the quality the image isn’t best but if you zoom in there’s quite a lot of variation of the same letter form so it’s an adaptive font.

    Look at the two L’s in bullying. They’re not the same both times and the two t’s in cutting merge into each other but not any of the other characters. So there’s some custom letter forms going on there which comic sands doesn’t support.



  • Sort of. As in most cases it’s a bit more nuanced than that, actually happened is that some economists came up with this totally swell idea, except they didn’t live in the real world and never had, so it didn’t work. Then once the rich upper classes realized how effective it was at giving them lots of money, they maintain the system.

    There wasn’t some grand conspiracy to implement it, all that happened was the rich being opportunistic and taking advantage of a broken system as per usual.


  • Trickle down economics works on paper but because it assumes that A there’s only one country in the world in which anybody would spend any money, and it’s the country in which they generated that money, and B that people pay taxes proportionate to the amount of money they possess and therefore are incentivized to spend it when they get it, which of course doesn’t work because either they are not paying taxes proportionate to their earnings, or they are finding some other way to not pay the taxes other than spending the money.
