Readers of the New Yorker will know Charles Barsotti as the cartoonist with the one-liners on the psychaitrist’s couch, and the naive-but-wise sayings of his floppy-eared white puppy character. Barsotti is able to communicate volumes with a few words and a few lines, the mark of an exemplary cartoonist. Like a great story, the drawing above could be interpreted in many ways: The poor and the rich, entrepreneurs and mega-corporations, the consequence of the Bush tax cuts, or the willingness of the successful to still listen and learnfrom those of more modest accomplishment. Simply brilliant.
