Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for April 18, 2018

You will have to Rob the bank in order to get the money you need to leave the country.

Or anytime between now and November 3, 2020.

uhhhhhhh…rob Pigita?

Pig, that’s what you get for cosigning for Rat.

Is that list an “and” or an “or”?

Sing along with me:

The Hills are Alive, with the Sound of Fleeing.

I flee good now. The way that I should now. I flee good.

Whats with this WE stuff are Pig & Rat not so secret lovers now?

Yes! I knew Rat & Pig were in the Closet! Pigita suspected, likewise!

Rat prefers to do ‘debt restructuring’ the fun way!

Don’t forget “3) Raise taxes.” Oh, wait…that’s another breed of pig.

Butch and Sundance live!

Oh, shoot. Rat forgot to load his gun before he robbed the bank.

At least he did not misspell “flee”. It is bad enough that our rats have fleas. If he misspelled the word it would imply that he wants a nation of fleas, and would Pig want to go to a “Flea Country” after robbing a bank?

The Mafia smells a dirty rat……with fleas.

Rat, you realize robbing banks only makes the economy worse, not better.

It’s fleecing the country, not fleeing. That’s the current state but you have to be quick while there is something left.

Perhaps the PB4S fans could hold a bake sale to help our boys get out of debt?

Rat just passed the employment test @ Wells Fargo. Problem solved!

Maybe rob the Scrooge McDuck vault.

Make sure to get all your shots and a flee collar before you go!

They should just do the “Presidential” thing and declare bankruptcy.

I like the calm, rational, sane approach to debt this strip takes. Cartoon-Boy is a genius, wanted in all 50 states and numerous foreign countries!

Get jobs or win competitions. Not as easy as robbing banks, but it’s the legal way!
