– Did you know that a whopping 47 percent of members of Congress are millionaires?
– I should hope so!

– But they may be overtly using their political power to enrich themselves! Or at the very least you know they’re gonna have a tough time being fair-minded when it comes to representing less-well-off constituents!
– Who would you rather take the alien overlords out to dinner?
Poor people?

– Those invisible death-ships are trigger-happy, man. I want those ambassadors wined and dined and bought whatever they want. / The rich can get rich and stay rich and get even richer so long as they stay a step ahead of the expensive tastes of the monsters who hold the planet’s survival in their volatile claws!

– You really believe that the super-rich are protecting the rest of us from intergalactic annihilation?
– Of course! / I mean the alternative is just too distressing.

I wrote a little reminiscence on Patreon (free/unlocked) — including a first-since-then reprint of the photocomics I made at the time, documenting the trip!
