Bailout cartoon idea

(This one has likely been used already, but anyway, for what it's worth):

Scene: The sinking of the Titanic (labeled "The Economy"). Huge waves are filled with Chinese sharks.

A gigantic iceberg named "Sub-Prime Loans" stands nearby.

The "Economy" has already hit the iceberg and is sinking almost at a right angle to the ocean just like you remember from artists' renderings.

On deck at the front of the ship which is tipping: Henry Paulson, Ben Bernanke, George Bush, and white men all dressed alike in suits and ties jumping into lifeboats while Paulson, dressed as Captain Hook, waves his hook around which has a dollar bill punctured by the hook that flaps in the wind.

Capt. Hook shouts: "Jump for your lives, men. We don't have much time!"

Left standing aimlessly on deck, yep, you guessed it: Men, women, and children, shabbily dressed who are, indeed, "The American Taxpayers."
