Obama taxation cartoon (2)

Rick McKee - The Augusta Chronicle - Obamas Fair Shake COLOR - English - Barack Obama, Obama, State of the Union, fair shake, tax the rich, soak the rich, fair share, class warfare, election 2012 
 This cartoon was drawn by Rick McKee of the Augusta Chronicle. Their is a pile of money and person to represent the rich and their taxes. The juxtaposition of Obama's statement and the visualization of his plan creates an ironic scene. The irony is used to highlight that plans to increase taxes on the rich is not going to help everyone. This is saying that the proposed increase of income tax on the rich is not the easy solution Obama is trying to make it sound like. McKee does not support Obama and is a Republican.
