Ben Cohen (of Ben & Jerry's ice cream fame) is now a spokesman for truemajority.org. Here he gives a demonstration of how U.S. government spending is "out of whack" using a simple "cookie graph."

This is a re-post, but as my original link is dead, and I am unable to find a replacemnt (thank you very much Tavis Smiley lawyer-goons! ) I'll just have to use this one.
Those of you who remember the original, it's basically the same thing. Same presenter, same ideas, just different format.
