Even though this cartoon was drawn decades ago, I can't help but thinking, "Well, to be fair, if they are still using a rotary phone, a VCR, and CRT TV, they are still kinda in the Stone Ages." :)

Actually, no, that's not what I was going to say. If there is a way to present an honest summary of the pros and cons of the given object being voted on, then this would be a very effective tool.
(BTW, I agree with your quote above about the best argument against democracy. To add to it, I believe it was Churchill who said it was the worst form of government except for all of the others.)

Unbiased? It depends on who "they" are that makes the pamphlets. In theory, this looks good, but everyone has their biases and everyone has an agenda.

George Bush was a class act. He was not without his failings, like all of us, but he was, in my opinion, the most under-rated and under appreciated president of our time.

Can someone explain the last picture? I think I am missing some element to this one.

Lakewood, California, moving day. While there were a ton of homes that everyone moved into all at once, this particular photo was staged for Life Magazine (notice how you can clearly see the names on the moving vans). And yes, racial housing was very much a thing in southern California in that day.

If they charged enough to make a profit every year, that 91% would drop in a hurry.

To be fair, he does better than most Americans (including myself) would if they were trying to fill out a map of Germany.

So some guy's wife makes his lunch? Who cares? (Maybe, just maybe, this is her way of saying "Love You,")

As long as the roaches don't all have to survive, for $75 million, yes, absolutely.

At first, I wondered if she was just using it like a set of binoculars (I've seen it done), but then I noticed where her trigger finger was.
On the plus side, she won't be using as much eye-shadow for the next week or two.

Pretty much. Supposedly, this guy fit the description of someone seen around a rash of burglaries (that were never reported), and this gave these two men reason to corner him like an animal, and shoot him when he put up a fight.
Then someone released the video they took of the incident, thinking it would bolster their case. In reality, it backfired in a major way, and now the vast majority of people are siding with the guy they shot and killed.
Maybe, this will instigate some changes in that area (that part of the state is known for racism and "good ole' boy" networking).

I had this happen to me once. I was asked to join a raiding party (10 Man, WoW), and after the first boss, the raid leader left to go eat supper. We were NOT a happy bunch.

She probably wanted to get away from her five kids for a little while and take a break! (My wife is a teacher, I know of what I speak.)
