We don’t have an extra $2.5 million to spend.”</span></p> <p><span> </span><span>Oakland police estimate that overtime eventually will top $3 million, and Boyd said this may lead to cuts in senior services and libraries.

These dollars are being spent needlessly, but at one hand it is stimulating the middle class pocket books of the police, and that does help the economy some.</p> <p>Total Cost of Occupy: $13 Million</p> <p>Total Cost of Wall Street Bailouts: $11 Trillion</p> <p>Its a small price to pay to speak out against the way our government does its business, to prevent a repeat of 2008’s collapse, and to prevent another 11 trillion dollars in bailouts.</p>http://comicistic.tumblr.com/post/13308135370http://comicistic.tumblr.com/post/13308135370Fri, 25 Nov 2011 11:08:51 -0800<p>All my work ends up on the computer, drawn with a Wacom Intuos pen tablet in Photoshop with some custom brushes I fiddled with myself. :]</p> <p>Of course, using traditional media is a great way to build up a collection of great textures you can use to make your digital work look more natural.
