Political Cartoon #2

Tom Toles drew this cartoon, which features two men, rather puzzled, looking at a maze on a wall that is entitled "D.C. Ethics Reform," suggesting that the moral center of D.C. is not just extremely hard to find, but perhaps inexistent. One man asks "where do you end up?" and the other, "where do you even start?" Toles implies that a person observing dealings in the nation's capital would have difficulties finding morals or perhaps justice or the essence of goodness. In this cartoon, he demonstrates how cynically he views politics and does so with caricature and some satire.
