7. More Dough. Bigger Pie

7. More Dough. Bigger Pie 6. Reduce Deficits. Share Savings. is a series of cartoons to illustrate the economic philosophy of Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan. The idea for the series came from Peggy Noonan, former speech writer for Ronald Reagan and current editorial page columnist for the Wall Street Journal. In her August 11, 2012 WSJ column Ms. Noonan reflected on the dim choice of Obama to think he was slamming Mitt Romney's economics by referring to them as "Romney Hood," some sort of reverse Robin Hood. Ms. Noonan asserts that "everyone likes Robin Hood," so Romney Hood sounds kind of like a compliment. An admiring nickname meant as an insult was born. Mr. Romney shold go with it, lay out how he'll save taxpayers from the predators of the liberal left and call it Romney Hood. I was inspired by the idea. I created these illustrations for Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan to use as chapter headings to introduce some of the fundamental economic concepts of the Romney-Ryan team.
