Date: 2011
From: Darroch, Bob 1940- :[Digital cartoons published in the Whangarei Report]

Description: A group of men sit round a table in a pub enjoying a spirited conversation about the 'US debt crisis' and the danger of 'time running out for debt deals' - both of these topics are featured in newspapers that are lying on the floor. The barman says 'Hoy!... Before USA whisks you off to solve their financial crisis - you're 50c short here'. Context: Refers to the huge interest in the US debt crisis at the end of July that ended in a deadlock that needed to be broken in order to prevent default on Tuesday 1 August. President Obama at the last hour made a compromise that many believe was weighted heavily in favour of the Republican stance that meant no change to taxation but cuts in public spending.
