Ten Things You Might Not Know but Probably Should
- rhn_mk1 6y agoTen things you should know if you're interested in the state of affairs in the USA. At least a skim didn't reveal anything explicitly checked against the rest of the world.
- soared 6y agoSome of these are just looking at averages and nothing else. 7 - Mortgage rates have not increased in 40 years. Clearly mortgage rates in places people want to live have skyrocketed, and in places people don't want to live they've plummeted. 9 - Marriage rate is not historically low. This one is just flat out wrong... the rate is the lowest its been in 100 years.
- COGlory 6y ago9 was hilarious. ~60 percent of the shown graph was marriage rates increasing. Then they claimed that that 60% was a historical anomaly because the other 40% show it decreasing.
- hawkesnest 6y agoThe rate of unarmed people killed by police has gone down, true. But that chart only shows the latest 5 years. It seems like historical context would be valuable. And if I recall, the sources for those numbers are disputable, as there is not a sanctioned body responsible for collecting and maintaining that data.
- Giorgi 6y agoYeah, try posting that to Reddit, you will get banned.
- yyyymmddhhmmss 6y agoJust a unabashed listicle of propaganda to keep the working class toiling away.
