Wages Valentine

For: Michael
Occasion: Valentine's Day

This card concept came to me right before I fell asleep, and I am so, so, so glad I remembered it the next day. I mean, there has never been a more Mike Keane card than this one. It reads, "Baby, unlike American wages since the 1970s, my love for you will never stagnate." (That's a labor/economics joke, guys!) There's a graph featuring a pretty steady line of middling pay and then a line of love that is on the up and up and slashes through a heart, just like Cupid's bow. If we can't get paid because of a rigged capitalist system, at least we've got love to see us through, right?
