The political cartoon below was made in 2003, what is the main message that the political cartoon is trying to get across with respect to taxes? does it apply to the current political situation almost 10 years later? why do you think it is or isn't still relevant?

This political cartoon is trying to show the importance of paying taxes. Taxes help to fund government programs that are critical to millions of American citizens. If taxes continue to get cut, people will continually be hurt as they will not receive the support they need.

The issue of taxes is always a relevant taxes. Many Americans complain about having to pay taxes and are constantly hoping for lower taxes. Even though this would result in more money in our paychecks, it would mean less services available by the government.
