This chart is everywhere these days. My question is why is the 148 billion so much bigger than the 142B underneath it? And why doesn't the yellow 316B deficit take half of the left side, since it is about 50%? And why is the 316B yellow smaller than the 148B green? This is not how this chart is supposed to work.

News outlets do this ALL the time. People that don't read the data see what they want them to see

But that chart is coming from the Treasury directly, not news media
