I don't like this pie chart. It doesn't show any deaths from old age and related diseases.
Heh. Not sure I understand a need for any further data in the chart.
The statement is that abortions have killed a significantly larger number of people than the recent wars have. Nuff said.
But pie charts are meant to compare percentages of a whole. You can't cherry pick which pieces of pie to include and which to leave out. If you label the chart "United States Deaths" it has to include deaths from all causes in the United States.
Pretend it says “from wars”
If it said "United States Deaths From Wars" then it would make no sense including abortion deaths. I maintain that it is an ill-conceived graph that drives a fair point, but does so dishonestly. Instead of allowing the reader to draw his own conclusion it bludgeons him with the statistician's own view.
