death and taxes

federal budget graphI was poking around on a buddy’s new site, ohmygov, and came across an interesting visual of government spending. The budget graph uses a pictograph to display the relative size of different areas of money that is taken from you and spent by washington. I am always amazed at how people fail to make the connections between gov spending and their daily lives. I quick glance at the graph shows how much of it is dominated by military spending and how little goes to education and health care. This poster is going up at my office and should be a good information radiator as we go into the 2008 presidential throw-down.
