Given the travesty of a parody of evil we've been living through for the past three years, I forgot all about my promise to update the Halloween scale.
This was my last graph, from April 2016, showing the $6 billion Americans spend on Halloween and comparing it to a few other big-dollar items that were in the news at the time:
Our dear leader has not managed to build his wall yet, so we don't have any facts to update those two piles of pumpkins.
One thing I could add to the graph is the Trump tax cut, which was $1.5 trillion dollars... but it would bust the graph apart since that amount is so much more than all the others. (It would be 20 times as tall as the tallest stack in this graph.)
