This does not make sense when, again, aggregate indicia also indicate improvements. The belief that things are worse is false. It remains false.
I think it's based off one of the vietnam toonists, but I've not had time to go digging.

Reminds me of Herblock, except with the caption on the bottom rather than the top. His work was very influential, though, so other cartoonists have used that general style.

IN THE NEWS: To deal with a big budget shortfall and a dip in enrollment numbers, Seattle Public Schools officials are considering closing as many as 20 elementary schools – this, despite the fact that, 15 years ago, under similar circumstances, 11 schools were closed and, only a short time later as student numbers rebounded, five schools had to be built or re-opened at a cost of $50 million.

Somewhere in their years of education, the folks who run our schools must have heard the adage that says those who do not learn the lessons of history are doomed to repeat it. They should keep that in mind before rushing to shut the doors on too many buildings.

I find strong similarity to the humour and composition of Bill Mauldin's works, especially in the foxhole cartoon. But it may not be based on any particular comic.
