Data-Visualization: The beats of the financial crisis
Another fine example of an outstanding data visualization from the WSJ. We call it the beats of the financial crisis.
These diagrams perfectly demonstrate how many people are having a bad time now because of the greed, ruthlessness and high criminal energy levels of a few.
And this just seems to be the beginning or better to say the end of the beginning.

Image: Change is coming
While we don’t like the idea to demonstrate any difference between people by the color of your skin, we are remembering that not so long ago (less than 30 years in some states of the U.S.) a person like Obama would have seen his parents arrested for the (difference in the) color of their skin and he himself would have been a complete outcast in normal life left alone political life.

It certainly visualizes that there is a change. And when can you see 44 U.S. Presidents all together in one image.

Humor: Pay Rises
In quite a few countries around the globe the next rounds of pay negotiations will soon start or have just started. And this time those negotiations most likely in a few countries might turn out to end in fights for workers getting at least the inflationary price increases covered.
Interestingly enough while those managers that have caused the current world wide economic crisis have recently given themselves pay rises of 20% or more (plus of course millions in bonus and dividend payments) they are once more demonstrating complete resistance to let those who create the results participate - even with a minimal share. And based on recent publications real inflation e.g. in the UK is actually closer to 18% and not around the 3-4% published by the government.
Now here’s an image to help sustain these hardships and to make you feel better (or at least smile).

There is a great image (link below) on Flickr asking for support in the form of a Nigerian email scam letter
