[OpenSpending] NYT on US budget proposals

[Ole.Wintermann at bertelsmann-stiftung.de]

Thanks for sharing!

Interesting example for the fact that an interpretation of numbers is needed. Without the analysis of the sozio demographic background these numbers could lead to wrong implications. For example: higher medi care costs can also be caused by demographic change. I am still searching for a best practice combination of quantitative and qualitative analysis. But nevertheless: this chart is a good example of how to show a complexe world in a simple way.

Best
Ole
