- I think the main visual elements of this cartoon are the fat capitalist man and the little laborer, because they are the center of attention. What the polotical cartoon is about is, that in capitalism there are really rich and greedy people represented by the fat man. Also there are extremely poor and starving laborers that are taken advantage over by the rich people, represented by the small guy getting robbed by the fat capitalist man. I think the cartoonists view of capitalism is pretty bad because he clearly shows that the little laborers have no power and that the rich business men take complete advantage over them. The cartoonist could have added a bit more about how terrible the laborers life is and how little money he makes.
