Wasn't on my wish list...

This cartoon I find slightly unsettling and rather upsetting. The elephant is dressed in a Santa Clause costume playing the roll of Santa while he is really part of the democrat party. The man walking away has a word on his sweater that says "unemployed" to show to the viewer that this person is without a job. In the text box the man is saying "this wasn't on my wish list...". There is a knife in his back, that states "jobless benefits cuttoff" which is refering to the fact that he now has no unemployment money to rely on either due to the cut backs from the government. The man is walking away sadly feeling like he has been stabbed in the back by the government. Which in the literal sense he has been from the depiction of the image at least.
