Idadi Saba


This cartoon depicts the big insurance company AIG and how they took advantage of their customers. There are three pirates and a chest of treasure on a seemingly remote island in this image. The pirates are the employees, the treasure is the money that they stole and the island is the off shore account that the companies use to hide this money. Two pirates are looking though the treasure as the third run back on the island with captain orders. The orders are essentially to return the money that was taken because was “shameful” the other begin to ask what shame is. This artist is say that big companies are getting caught taking people money and now have to return it but they do not fell anything they don now even have basic knowledge of shame just like pirates. The artist is also saying that the ethical code of conduct for the large companies is piracy because they are so self-serving, indulgent and without shame.
