Not only does this graph aim to mislead with the unmistakable divergence for the projected data — but I like how the projected data incorporates some “noise” to make the projected data look more realistic. Shouldn’t projected data look more like pure polynomial curves (without the squiggles that imply data is more accurate than it is)?

Note that the republicans used the CLASSIC statistical manipulation of extending the timeframe way beyond appropriate - those lines really dont start diverging until 2030!! and extending this budgit until 2080!!
Because everyone knows the world will more or less be the exact same in 70 years, so we can keep using the same budget.
Really?
