Jun 16 The Shocking Disparities of Labor Cost (infographic)

From Fixr.com, The Shocking Disparities of Labor Cost visualizes how long it takes to earn the annual U.S. Minimum Wage from countries around the world.

My only criticism is that the change in area of the triangles doesn’t match the increase in time for the different countries. The scale of the visuals doesn’t match the numbers.

Thanks to Andres for sending in the link!
