some fairly recent cartoons that are tied into education

a brief word about each: the top one... I just wondered about the situation some of the kids and their parents are in. And since I did this one, the economic news has only gotten worse. I hope the government plans to take care of these people through the tough times. I doubt it. But I hope it.
The middle one.... I think it was pathetic regarding the record low turnout we had for the last federal election. If you just couldn't be bothered then maybe your opinion on other matters shouldn't count. If you were totally skeptical of any of the parties, I understand. But even if it's a case of name your own poison I, for one, would like to have that choice. Some are just a little less painful than others. So, thanks to all the people who didn't vote, we got stuck with the really painful one.
The bottom one.... just before we get too carried away with the more angelic view of youth, let's just remember that most of them are just old people passing their time until they too can turn down votes. Yes, there are good ones..... but there's a whole lot of silly ones too. And let's not forget that even though some of them will turn out just fine, while they are in the teen years, most of them have their wiring mostly screwed up.
