Two things that the Voting Rights Act of 1965 accomplished were:
-It removed the use of poll taxes.
-It made literacy tests illegal in voting.
The Voting Rights Act of 1965 is a historic law within American law since it prohibited discriminatory practices in the right to vote for African-Americans in the United States. This law achieved that (almost 100 years after the enactment of the Fifteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution which prohibits any type of discrimination based on the race or color of the citizens of the United States) the constitutional right to vote was protected, because until that moment there were states that, in order to vote, demanded literacy tests or the payment of some tax, using these resources to limit the right to vote of African American people. This law was promulgated by President Lyndon B. Johnson, who had already enacted the Civil Rights Act the previous year.
The cartoon plays on the common idea that bureaucracy is overly complicated, and that it requires a lot of paperwork to perform even the most simple of tasks. People also assume that this ludicrous amount of paperwork makes bureaucracy slow and inefficient.
While bureaucracy can be slow and inefficient at times, people often forget that the paperwork is there for specific reasons. Leaving a written record of every action taken ensures that accidents happen less often, and that accountability is maintained. Also, bureaucratic procedures can be slow because of the amount of people that require them or due to the complexity of some issues. So the stereotype of bureaucracy is for the most part undeserved.
The tiny invaders being discussed in the article are plants. They are considered invaders because they came from other countries, but are now threatening the native plants. People brought them in because they wanted to make their gardens and yards beautiful because the plants are very rarely found locally.
I think they are because if they done some horrible stuff other people might not want to be around them because of what they done and don't want the same.
