    Why do people not understand how statistical statements work so often? The graphic shows one thing. It shows the percentage of residents who pay more than $1,000 a month on their car payments. That’s it. That’s all it’s claiming to show. That’s all it’s trying to show. That’s all it’s supposed to show. Getting mad that it doesn’t show 20 other aspects is ridiculous.

      Literally the first line of my comment is “it doesn’t say anything on how much more than $1,000 is spent”.

      Getting mad that

      Not sure where you got the impression i’m mad about anything but ok.
