Astonishingly, the correct answer is Option C. I noticed that when I was doing my taxes this year, ironically (not ironic at all). 

But if the answer were either A or B, we could call this harsh, severe, brutalist icon the emblem of Hardcockistan. We could put it right on their flag, which could either fly over a shoddy government building in the midst of a vast wasteland of beet farming and potassium mining OR above a small building in SoMa with no windows and really unconventional business hours. And in either of those 2 places, it would look right at home.

I also discovered, ironically (this time it's actually pretty ironic), that this image is public domain.
