Descrizione:
A Civil Service Employees Association (CSEA) cartoon depicting "Stuck in Oz", big drug manufacturers letting go of the ropes of a balloon (Prescription drug costs, rising health premiums) that was tethered to money bags (ad budgets) with Uncle Sam in the basket saying "Help! I don't know how to stop this thing!" while Dorothy and Toto (you and me) stand hopelessly watching from the yellow brick road. Tin Man, Scarecrow and the Lion are running toward the balloon holding a sign that says "Buy Generic." The castle (prescription bottle and pills that say tough to swallow) is in the background. The CSEA is New York State's largest union.
