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.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Wealth of Nations isn't really a "society manifesto", at least the 1st book. It goes to great lengths to compare and explain how and why things are valued/priced as they are. Hell, there's even a bit where Adam Smith claims the ideal salary should be twice what a man needs to sustain himself and his family, such that the extra money would be used to acquire more goods or services, thus making the economy grow.
Surprisingly based for the supposed founder of capitalism.
