The title of this cartoon is "Lost Homework". The title of this cartoon refers to the child in the cartoon explaining why he did not do his homework. It seems that the citizens of the united states are represented in the cartoon. Most citizens benefit from the educational system, and with the potential passing of Senate Bill #1 this system is at stake. The artist of the cartoon is giving a predicted scenario that would result from the passing of the bill. The artist does not portray any specific ideological position. The cartoon relates to the PA general assembly's first consideration of the bill, which happened yesterday. The cartoon does not directly relate to anything we have discussed in class however. The irony of the cartoon stems from the fact that both the examples that the child brought up as an excuse, were actually proposed by the general assembly at some point in time.
