The thing about David Horsey's art is that it helps his audience understand the heart of an issue in a matter of seconds. If you asked us to explain tax cuts for the rich in actual words, we're sure it would take hours to reach the crux of it all. Horsey shows us that a picture really does speak a thousand words (or much more in this case!).
Demanding that the tiny cat exit the sinking boat (which represents the federal deficit) while the massive crocodile weighs it down is a great allegory for the current situation in the USA and its latest tax cuts for the wealthy. Welfare for the people who need it uses up only a fraction of the government's budget. If rich people and corporations were taxed appropriately, maybe we'd all benefit a little more from the distribution of wealth.
