Interesting graphs and charts department

Spotify music choice data crunching suggests that as we age, we stop listening to pop music and become more settled in our preferences. Or put another way, old people listen to old music.

This spiral shows that over time, people listen to less popular artists.

Interesting graph is in the video.

Have you ever felt like the government doesn’t really care what you think?

Professors Martin Gilens (Princeton University) and Benjamin I. Page (Northwestern University) looked at more than 20 years worth of data to answer a simple question: Does the government represent the people?

Their study took data from nearly 2000 public opinion surveys and compared it to the policies that ended up becoming law. In other words, they compared what the public wanted to what the government actually did. What they found was extremely unsettling: The opinions of 90% of Americans have essentially no impact at all.
