This conservative cartoon by Larry Wright is titled "Big Dow Jones". In the cartoon, a man is holding a newspaper and says, "Wow! The Dow Jones has gone well over 14,000! All I need now is a job..." The message that is sent through this cartoon is that regardless of how high the Dow gets, or the stock market goes; Americans are still going to be unemployed. The stock market is not going to change the reality of thousands of Americans across the country. This article does not really discuss anything that we have talked about during class. However, I personally thought it was quite interesting how this cartoon depicted how so many Americans would react news like the one mentioned in the cartoon.
