Al Goodwyn Editorial Cartoons by Al Goodwyn for September 08, 2022

What about the taxes that republicans refused to take from the very rich?

Yeah, that money needs to be set aside for the corporate bailouts where it’ll do some real good…

There is a song in one of my favorite movies; the first two lines are, " Do you hear the people sing? Singing the songs of angry men" The republicans would be wise to remember that come election time.

Uncle Al was fine with $Trillions in tax giveaawys and PPP forgiveness. How dare struggling students get anything. but that’s the way things are in the Alternate reality.

More Dem tax breaks for the upper class.

Don’t worry. The new IRS agents will collect the $1 trillion dollars in unpaid taxes that are out there. That will more than cover it. And I’m 100% fine with that.

“Income” taxes need to be rethought. Too many ultra wealthy are able to shelter 100% of their income while living off their wealth.

I pay my share of the military budget but I haven’t had the chance to invade anywhere yet… That’s how taxes work. Sheesh.

The educated are among the first to be pushed against the wall, and then the troops open fire. An educated person is the antithesis of the trump supporting maga.

“Trump Tax Cuts Helped Billionaires Pay Less Taxes Than The Working Class In 2018”

That headline wasn’t in a Left-leaning publication but in the conservative business magazine – Forbes.

It’s not easy to manipulate educated people….if it were up to GOP, we would be hurled back to the caveman days, so they would have complete control of the masses….

The United States has the highest income inequality of any advanced economic nation. Conservative billionaires are spending to keep it that way.

You begrudge $10,000 to struggling kids? Read this to see all the Republicans who received forgiveness for PPP loans that were a lot more than $10,000. https://www.businessinsider.com/white-house-rips-republicans-over-ppp-loans-student-loan-forgiveness-2022-8#rep-marjorie-taylor-greene-1

Is the real troll under the bridge

Didn’t see the one against PPP loan forgiveness, Al.

fjb

the GOP went to Ayatollah School

Nor healthcare, clean water, etc.

That toll comes to $200 a year on the average. Now let’s talk about the toll for Bush’s wars in the Middle East, Trump’s tax cut for the rich, an $800 billion military, subsidies for oil companies…

^^ Don’t blame me, I’m a math teacher and can count.

This isn’ even good propaganda as there is not even one shred of truth in this cartoon as propaganda usual requires one tiny kernel. Now to be fair, facts are never required to appeal to your fascist white supremacist sheep. Why don’t you tell the truth for once in your pathetic drawings? Trump and the Republican Party are the reason why the taxes on the poor and the middle class rose this tax season. How? Well, what no one seems to have noticed at the time the 2017 tax breaks were passed that there was a provison in the law that made the tax cuts for the wealthy permanent, who the tax cuts on the poor and the middle class were set to expire this year (which they did). The student loan bill will not raise taxes. By the way, taxes are the price you pay for living in society, which, I might add is socialist and communist in origin. The taxes that you pay are intended to benefit the community and the country as a whole. How about drawing a cartoon depicting the fact that Trump and the Republican Party habitually employ the language of racism, xenophobia, capitalism, fascism , white supremacy, Christian Nationalism, patriarchy, and misogyny to give poor and middling (not middle class as there is no more middle class as it was a natural casualty of our capitalist system) classes a scapegoat and a distraction as they continue their attempt to implement George Fitzhugh’s and James Henry Hammond’s idea of the perfect society: the poor and the middle classes, white and black, become the slaves of the wealthy capitalists.

Oh goody! A fairy tale!

Better a toll for student than the warmonger’s toll. Better a student debt than the PPP toll.

Why is it that the Dems think they are the only educated populace? Oh, they are educated fools.

Is that Hunter’s laptop the Toll is using for a calculator?~

But Mr Goodwyn is okay with the forgiven student loans of Matt Gaetz, MJG, Kevin Hern, Vern Buchanon and all the other Repubs, who also criticize it? Repub hypocrisy rules!
