Charts are one of the very few things about being an adult businessman that make work fun. You can have lots of fun choosing your colors for each bar, et cetera and then when you're in a meeting you get to keep pointing at them to make your presentation and let's face it...who can argue with a chart. I mean, it's right there, in colorful bars or pies and so easy to understand and difficult to refute. Here's a chart to explain Congress' latest 'tax-cut' for America.
SuperWow! showed us a chart earlier in the week and I just adored it. It makes it so simple for me to point at and say to people "If you make less than $150,000 a year the Republican Party doesn't care about you. They just want your vote because you're an idiot."
Me, I like to make charts about why my relationships aren't working out. Since they are irrefutable, they really drive my points home. Here's my latest chart which I used as part of a full slide presentation. Click to View image
i want to see you're relationship chart with pinkdome
Oh, it's a love hate relationship with me and pinkdome!
Added Richard Neal, D-Mass: "You cut taxes for Wall Street at the expense of Main Street."
Love it.
And that $42,000 cut for people making over $1M. Fabulous, darling.
Between that, and the wingnuts telling married people they shouldn't have sex for any reason other than to procreate, the R's are looking vulnerable.
Anyone know how I can make between 100 and 200 Grand so I can get a tax cut? I mean, other than being a full-time blogger.
*Groan*
It's clear that the Repugs aren't paying attention to the economy and, as always, are using the roadmap of ideology. According to the Fed chairman we're looking at some inflation - which is why the Fed raised the interest rate the other day. So why the hell is Congress pushing this expansionary measure, which we'll be stuck with in the long term? I suppose they figure that when we get stuck with a ton of inflation, we'll all look richer, because the numbers will get bigger, but the money will be worth less.
It's simple Demosthenes, they've got to keep the economy flooded with liquidity. Reality won't support a price of more than $700/oz for gold.
HAHAHAHAHA! Your chart fucking rules!
