Scandalous actions for a man with a wife and nine children

A young woman wearing a star-spangled hat and dress (new loan from the U.S.) walks down the street. Her hat and bag are decorated with a dollar sign. Across the street a bearded man (France) tries to catch her attention, while the baby carriage he was pushing ($) hits a fire hydrant, causing the infant to cry. Next to him, a woman holding another infant watches the scene while eight children of different ages walk with her. The oldest of the children carries a sign reading "old loan from U.S. with nine years of unpaid interest."
