2. Three primary objects are referenced: The elephant undeniably serves as representation of the Republican party, the tax plans menu functions to outline the general effort by GOP candidates to exert a flat tax that benefits America's most wealthy, contradictory to the tax plans proposed by liberals, and an obese man serving to represent the aggregation of wealthy Americans, further benefiting from conservative taxing ideology.
3. Toles again utilizes humorous caricatures with excessive features to clearly illustrate his message, asserting that America's most wealthy have benefited excessively from conservative tax plans. Numerous puns are used in his outlining of the GOP menu, incorporating candidates Herman Cain (now passed), Rick Perry (now passed), Michele Bachmann (passed approximately a year ago), Newt Gingrich (alive, despite previous popular opinion), Ron Paul (very much alive), and Mitt Romney (remains in purgatory).
4. As previously stated, the cartoon deals with the proposed conservative flat tax that would significantly benefit wealthy Americans.
5. Toles displays disdain towards Republican tax plans through his characterization of the wealthy, asserting that conservatives will do little to benefit common Americans regarding wealth distribution (I'm still debating whether they should, Paul is growing on me).
6. Toles' humorous depiction of the rich suggests a liberal standpoint, functioning to ridicule Republican taxing plans.
