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.

We don't need a different work, we need people to learn what they mean.
Your father does not make profit, he makes a salary/wage. Profit is the surplus revenue after expenses.
my dad does make a profit, he owns a small business.
Is he the only employee?
nope
Tell him to stop stealing from his workers.
is making a profit enough to expand your operation stealing from workers?
Which is it, a business expense or a profit?
if it's being invested back into the company it is a business expense, if it's going into his pocket it's a profit.
it's probably a little bit of both. idk, i'm not involved and disagree with his politics. but he's a good target for what you'd need to do to change minds because reasonable explanations can get through, but he's been poisoned by whatever cultural influences reagan imposed on his stupid little kid mind; believes in trickle down myth and such.
