Trouw

Tjeerd Royaards

Cartoon showing a mountain with three tiers. The top of the mountain is flat and forms the first tier; a villa stands here with a pool on the roof; a lawn with trees and a tennis court surrounds it, as well as a high wall. The second tier is also surrounded by a wall and consists of middle class houses. The lowest and smallest tier is crammed full of slum dwellings. Sewer pipes and garbage chutes jut out from the first and second tier and rain down brown sludge and garbage onto the slums on the third tier. A large sign here shows a skull and crossbones and the word 'Trickle-down'.

@royaards

This is spot on! 👍 Thanks!!

The yin to this yang was best expressed by something one of my residents told us as medical students...

"Shit flows downhill, but the stink always rises."
