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.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

So... farming is a free gift from nature?
No, natural capital is - soil particularly.
This person is correct. Land and the natural process of nature are free gifts.
Better to think of natural capital and human labour being the two sources from which all value (in the sense of productivity) is ultimately derived. The soil is natural capital, the fertiliser is both (i.e. a mined and processed mineral resource), the rotation is human labour. Then the knowledge to reproduce this process in the correct manner is also critical.
Close. Farming is labour, which is what gives economic value to the free gifts. The capitalists skim excess value from this process in the form of wage theft and other fuckery.
I'm simplifying, but yeah.
