This poaster is based on a World War II Era poster published by the Canadian government urging citizens to avoid buying unnecessary items as a way of controlling inflation and conserving material resources for the war effort. I can't imagine an image more exemplary of the current American Republican Party -- it's bloated, expensive, unneeded, and very, very white.

I don't disagree with you; Republican party is pretty greedy and money-grubbing, but they're not 100% useless. They're more like... 60% useless. Maybe 75.
