The problem is, of course, that not only is economics bankrupt, but it has always been nothing more than politics in disguise... economics is a form of brain damage.

It's a truck driver being told to run some poor shmuck off the road, apparently.
Stop filling dumpsters, as much as you possibly can, and everything will get better.

Just think it through.

It's just some damned hippie giving a truck driver a massage. Stop projecting theology onto everything.

I don't understand why that honest looking truck driver would pick up a hitch-hiking tweaker. I mean, no one picks up hitvh-hiking toothless, quivering meth addicts like the one in the drawing preparing to strangle the truck driver.

it's far too dangerous. In fact, he's not even wearing a seat belt for goodness sakes.

So let's give it a context, ideally edgy and humorous.

I interpreted the artist to be observing the idea of invisible intervention in daily human life Ala Jesus "coaching" decisions & attitudes.

...& it's painfully funny.
