Black-and-white political cartoon showing 'Taxpayer' men feeding oats to a 'Bureaucracy' horse, while 'The Poor' sparrows peck at manure.

A political cartoon in the style of the late 1980s. Two men in suits, with signs saying ‘Taxpayer’ around their necks, are pouring oats from sacks into a trough in front of a huge, well-fed horse. The word ‘BUREAUCRACY’ is written on the horse. Behind the horse are several large piles of horse manure, in which small sparrows (called ‘the poor’) are pecking for grains. One of the men points to the sparrows and asks, ‘Why don't we just feed the oats to the sparrows?’ The other replies with a shrug, ‘The horse is against it.’ Style: Black-and-white drawing, pointed cartoon style with clear lines, similar to newspaper cartoons by Mike Keefe See more
