Dumb question: what is this illustration from? I recognize the art style, but can't place it.

If I paid more attention in English class I could make this into an essay. Something about the "dog eat dog" nature of capitalism and the expectation that you will do it with rosy cheeks. The use of the butcher pig is an interesting take on the idiom as the harsh competition is often thought of as between faceless firms; rather than a blue collar worker. If I was a cultured pig I might have even watched the motion picture "Soylent Green" and weave it into the essay. Is the butcher aware of what goes into the grinder? Could it be that this pig is a revolutionary and is eating the rich pig?
