Specific SMBC comic about crowding out
I'm looking for one comic strip from Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal. It featured one of the aliens (Zorblaxians, but I don't think it was named as such) showing up on Earth, saying that it wants to take over a human's job. Or rather, the alien wants to do the human's job for free, as a charitable act, which leads the human to unemployment. I think it illustrated the economics concept of crowding out. I've tried using http://www.ohnorobot.com/ without success. Does anyone have a link to the specific comic? Gabbe (talk) 05:14, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Here there is. I don't think the comic is about crwding out (but I don't actually undernstand the article well) but a satire on well-meaning but misguided people who go to third world countries to volunteer doing non-qualified works that can get done by the locals themselves (for a salary)--85.52.85.178 (talk) 17:23, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes, that's precisely the one. Thank you! Gabbe (talk) 17:48, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
