Harrison Bergeron Political Cartoon
The message in my cartoon is pretty much that the government (represented by the lady on the pedestal) are hypocrites who are trying to manipulate the people into believing they are interested in the benefit of society, when really they are only interested in helping themselves. In the cartoon the actions of the government (the lady on the pedestal) mirror those of Diana Moon Glampers in "Harrison Bergeron". She preaches that everyone should be equals, and to ensure this that everyone should wear handicaps so people who are above average can be brought down to a level that is equal with everyone else. However, Diana herself does not wear handicaps. Hmmmmm.....
