A visual summary of inequality. Cartoon from last year.

#wealth #poverty #inequality

Cartoon showing a cliff with a giant pool on top filled with money, with a few superrich swimming in and lounging by the pool. A vertical conveyor belt transporting money from the bottom of the cliff to the pool is powered by people on unicycles, balancing precariously on a spinning rod. Signs on the cliff face read 'keep pedaling' One person has fallen off the unicycle and is falling down, passing a red painted line on the cliffside, with the text 'poverty line'.
