The Heavy Burden

Cartoon depicts a diminutive Wage Earner being forced to pull a cart with The Young, The Old, and Gov.t riding in it. With finances tight, wage earners are concerned that they are contributing more than other groups to take care of and fund programs for the old, the young and the government. This cartoon was re-published in the April 1968 edition of the North Dakotan.https://commons.und.edu/mcdonald-cartoons/1217/thumbnail.jp
