This cartoon by Scott Stantis shows a donkey and an elephant, representing the Democratic and Republican parties, both trying to reach a bucket of seeds labeled "Deficit Spending." This suggests that both parties are to blame for the growing national debt. It criticizes both parties for their irresponsible fiscal policies and suggests they prioritize political points over solving the problem.
This political cartoon by Scott Stantis shows a donkey and an elephant standing on stools next to each other in a kitchen. They are both pointing at a bucket of seeds, with the caption "Deficit Spending" above it. The cartoon is likely a reference to the fact that both the Democratic and Republican parties have been responsible for increasing the national debt in recent years.
The donkey represents the Democratic Party, and the elephant represents the Republican Party. The fact that they are both standing on stools suggests that they are both trying to reach the same goal, which is to increase government spending. The bucket of seeds represents the national debt, and the fact that they are both pointing at it suggests that they are both to blame for the growing debt.
The cartoon is a humorous way of criticizing both parties for their irresponsible fiscal policies. It also suggests that the two parties are more interested in scoring political points than in actually solving the problem of the national debt.
