On October 22, 2009, Bob Englehart's cartoon shows a suburban couple on their front porch at night. Three tombstones labeled MY JOB, MY HOUSE and MY CAR stand in the yard next to jack-o'-lanterns. The woman tells her husband to take the decorations down because they are too scary. The image captures public anxiety over widespread job losses, foreclosures and repossessions during the Great Recession.
