Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for August 24, 2021

Good to see Calvin understands the main purpose of participatory democracy.

#LetNewbornBabiesVote

sure, Calvin, let’s go with that

Vote and bribe mom could work.

Like you can handle that big of a piece, Calvin.

In my opinion the legal age to vote should be 25. (begin with the hammering replies..one…two…three…)

Voting doesn’t get you a bigger piece of anything. For that you have to bribe politicians… I mean “hire a lobbyist”.

Six year old’s can’t “vote”? Then how do you explain AOC and the rest of the squad?

Everyone wants a bigger slice of the pie kid!

An anagram of “bigger piece of pie” is “chief, piggie beer poet.”

Voting is a right you have to take seriously. You don’t have the wisdom or maturity to execute that right Calvin.

Well, at least he’s honest about it…

A six year old ran the country for four years, Calvin.

When you’re young, you want to vote to make a difference.

When you get older, you realize your vote doesn’t mean much.

When you mature, you know that you’re screwed either way.

Is that a figure of speech or do you just want some Pie?

Oh yes! A bigger piece!!

Don’t remember who the politician was that offered to make the pie bigger.

Thinking back on recent political campaigns, maybe only six year-olds should be allowed to vote.

Calvin already has a piece of the pie just from birth. Unfortunately too many others thinks they’re so privileged as adults.

I’ve said it before: Calvin is young Trump. Good thing that he has Hobbes as his conscience and minimal common sense

“Don’t we all Calvin……Don’t we all !”

Seems to become the mantra for those who begin with high standards, then become mired in the new possibilities once in office.

Sadly, some people keep that outlook well into their adult years…

At this rate, Calvin, you may just end up with crumbs…

Stay out of the Red States, Calvin. Oh wait, you’re white, so you’re OK.

My older daughter always felt the injustice of kids not having a voice in certain things (she was student body president in middle school). She had been looking forward to being old enough to vote. She turned 18 in 2020…2 days BEFORE Election Day!

I think the voting age should be the same age you get off your parents’ health care

in scotland the SNP wants to lower the voting age since they think youths will be more malleable to their message.

I believe in, One Man, One Vote. And that man is me. If made Emperor of America, I will fix everything. Support my campaign now. For a $1,000 donation, I will rename a city after you. For a $50,000 donation, I’ll put your likeness on the Nickel. What a deal! No checks, cash only, please.

I love pie, pizza, apple, lemon meringue, banana cream… I could go on.

sure thing kid. So here is your taxes bill, plus from now on you are legally responsible for your actions, and you will have to earn your own

©1991, and here we are, 30 years later, and we’ve regressed from that high point.

Don’t worry Calvin, long as the Democrats are in power. You will be allowed to vote as often as you wish

Pie? There is pie?! Why wasn’t I told?

The demorats are voting like six year olds……so no problem. Pelosie has the mind of a six year old and all her cronies just follow blindly.

MAGA, explained.

Well, in some states you don’t have to have a valid ID so it might work…

I think he’ll do well in today’s politics!

Heck, I’d settle for a few crumbs …

He probably meant that literally in this case!

NO pie for you!

Man, you come across these random C&H strips and realize just how good Watterson is!

If the Democrats had their way, six-year-olds would vote! The more un-informed voters the better!

Anyone else feel socialists are a bit immature?

That pretty much holds true all the way through adulthood.

Calvin, just play and make merry with your stuffed tiger as of now. The pie can wait for some years. For time being the pie which your mother makes is far better.

Moving on up, to the top, to that deluxe apartment in the sky, moving on up moving on up, we finally got a piece of the pie.

Almost sounds like many of the people who can vote. No care of the country, but total self interest only.
