And now he wants somebody to tow him

An image labeled "1920" depicts a man in a convertible (Russia. Soviet recklessness) speeding around a horse-drawn wagon (Bolshevik scare) driven by a man (rest of us), who tries to calm down the horses as a basket of fruit falls off the wagon. A second image, "1927," shows the convertible upside down (financial upset) and the driver (Soviets) asks for help as the wagon pass by. Meanwhile, both the driver and horses laugh.
