Marshall Ramsey by Marshall RamseyAbout Michael Ramirez
Two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Michael Ramirez combines an encyclopedic knowledge of the news with a captivating drawing style to create consistently outstanding editorial cartoons.
"Editorial cartoons should be smart and substantive, provocative and informative. They should stir passions and deep emotions. Editorial cartoons should be the catalyst for thought, and frankly speaking, if you can make politicians think, that is an accomplishment in itself."

Check out Steve Coll’s “Overtaxed” comment in the October 27 New Yorker’s “Talk of the Town”.

We are just not falling in an out of date, simplistic dichotomy.
Is the dogma (capitalism) there to help us or are we just existing to keep it in place?
We’re not against capitalism, but agains dogmatism. We refuse to see the world in a red vs blue, good vs evil, capitalism vs communism way.

Well Stew, the concentration of the wealth in the hands of the few has really worked so well eh? Especially in a consumer economy that relies on the average person spending money. Yea, taking money away from those people makes a lot of sense.
Seriously, will anybody address the fact that the top 400 people increased their wealth by $675B in the last 8 years?

Marx was a brilliant economic historian (a statement made by conservative economists), but he was a complete dimbulb when it came to understanding how people work. No, Stewie, I would never in a million years support Marx’s ideals. Nor does Obama.
It used to be that Republicans believed that those who were given much should be able to give back. McCain was quoted saying that a while ago, before he embraced the Bush giveaways to the rich. Bush and his ilk feel no need to support the rest of the country in any way – they just want to take what they can get and run. That’s not capitalism, that’s theft.

Nobody ever calls you a socialist if you support government policies designed to take wealth from the poor and middle class and redistribute it to the rich.
