If the wheel were to represent actual reality in our government, there would only be a single "Busted" slot at about 1/10th of the size. And a side note for whoever does the page layout: On my browser, the top image of the cartoon is cut off at the bottom. Could you please adjust the frame size to show the entire image? Thanks.
