To accurately determine which aspect of the Great Depression the cartoon emphasizes, it would be important to see the image of the cartoon itself. However, based on the options provided, the most relevant choice depends on the visual and textual clues presented in the cartoon.

If the cartoon depicts individuals or groups ignoring the signs of economic turmoil, then it emphasizes "That no one was paying attention, causing the economy to decline."

If it shows competing interests or conflicts among various groups, then it suggests "That people with competing goals caused the economy to decline."

If it highlights the effects of the depression in multiple countries or portrays a global view, then it indicates "That the economic decline was global, and not just a domestic issue."

And if it points to the role of foreign investments in the economic downturn, then it aligns with "That the cause of the economic decline was foreign investments."

Without the specific details of the cartoon, it's hard to definitively choose one of the options. However, examining the focus of the imagery and accompanying text would provide clarity on the cartoon's message regarding the Great Depression.
