the quote about the death tax is from somewhere in the mishkan hanefesh machzor for yom kippur. you can see that the comic was started maybe a month after yom kippur last year, so it was fairly recent, and striking at the time, even though comparing death to taxes is not a novelty.
i think the only other thing i can think of about this is that during the machine metaphor sequence "you must build on top of the machine as more complex demands arise. you cannot make life simpler. you must make the machine more complex."
attached is also a file of the whole comic not split up.
