The message in the cartoon is how bad our economy has become. A major problem in America is the number of illegal immigrants sneaking in to find labor. Instead of kicking them out there running for the border. Them jumping the border back home signifies just how bad things have gotten, not only immigrants but a good percentage of the American population is suffering from unemployment. The audience can be anyone and the 'writer' wants to make people aware of how extreme the economy is in decline, therefore also making the cartoon effective.
Interesting commentary. Funny cartoon, yes? It really does reflect the change in economic opportunities for illegal immigrants in the US as typical jobs that relied on (and could get away with) such labor have dried up -- construction, etc. Well done
ReplyDeletehaha I think the economy isn't that bad yet... but if we keep on the track that we are going it could be. I thought this was pretty funny cartoon.
