Monopoly Man Celebrates Tax Cuts While Congress Buries Government of the People
RJ Matson, Portland, ME
On June 30 2025 the cartoon shows the Monopoly Man dancing over the grave of government of the people by the people for the people dated 1789-2025. Papers labeled big beautiful tax cuts tax cuts for the rich Medicaid cuts and spending cuts for the poor swirl around. Shovels marked House and Senate stand ready in the dirt. The image responds to recent congressional action on a major tax and spending bill that reduces Medicaid and targets benefits toward wealthier interests.
