It seems plain that they’re playing some kind of home-brewed version of Monopoly here, one where you either get a lot more money or where property is a lot more cheap. MUCH LIKE LIFE, IN THE MIND OF YOUNG BETTY SPECTOR
I drew this strip back in June, and it has since become strikingly topical maybe! I don’t know where Betty picked up her ideas about, uh, “entitlements,” but I guess Mona has some kind of monstrous quasi libertarian views about some topics? Or at least wants her daughter to hold such views in order to develop some kind of fearsome, diabolical confidence? I don’t know yet.
There should be a new strip on Thursday. It is almost a certainty that Cathy will be in it, if you like Cathy.
