    The main question around this comic that makes it hard for me to derive a message is, who planted/cared for/owns the apple trees?

    I’m reminded of a speech from Gus in Better Call Saul, where technically a tree from his homeland was wild, but he was the one that made the effort to water and care for it before a critter started stealing from it.

      I wouldn’t follow ethics in business advice from a meth dealer explaining why he killed a wild animal.

      Right? It’s obviously an orchard, not a forest, and obviously the apples are one of the popular commercial cultivars rather than some wild natural variant.
