Cute Russian comic. The home of the official English version is here if anyone wants to skip ahead (or support them): https://boosty.to/gabiconomics-en

A cartel is a form of monopolistic association or agreements between companies that retain their financial and production independence. Those agreements can be about laying down exclusive spheres of commercial influence, sale terms, product diversity, trade volume regulation, pricing etc.

You're a landlord now! You get to collect a part of the profit of the wheel-shop with none of the managerial work! Why are you trying to dictate terms? Take the W, dude

I swear even fictional bourgeoisie can't just leave well enough alone

Well he still runs the wheel shop across the street so presumably he's concerned that such competitive salaries might give his other workers.... Ideas.

How does everyone have the emojis for this comic in this thread? Are y'all manually copying them from somewhere?

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago

Yeah i think they were submitted to the emoji comm but waiting on someone to get around to implementation. I don't know how that works though.

[-] Trying2KnowMyself@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

I think Edie might have actually added some to Hexcat, but I copy/paste things I’ve uploaded previously.
