I saw this little article over at Breitbart and thought that it might interest some here as to how statistics and numbers can be manipulated quite easily. Fascinating reading.

If you don't want to look at a picture of a certain individual highlighted in the article (Paul Krugman) you can go straight to the reference article here. Well worth your time just for the educational aspects of statistical manipulation by those in positions of power.
