Little orange circles spell trouble from Junk Charts.
From the post:
Economists Banerjee and Duflo are celebrated for their work on global poverty but they won’t be winning awards for the graphics on the website that supports their book “Poor Economics” (link). Thanks to a reader for the pointer.
Since it is visual you will have to go to the post (and the book’s website) to get the full impact of what the Junk Charts post is addressing.
Take this as fair warning: A graphic may make perfect sense to you and be nearly unintelligible to anyone else. Even being forewarned by the Junk Chart post, I was unprepared for how difficult and confusing the graphic was in fact.
It is the sort of graphic that I would expect to see on Jon Stewart, mocking some economic report.
