Wealth, shown to scale
It's depressing for me.

This could've only been made by a USAmerican. Why the hell pick "80 million" as your normal unit? Why not 100 million?

Because the actual scaling is $1000/pixel. The issue is that screen resolutions are in units of 8 (because bytes) and thus to get it to look nicely centered, while filling the screen and staying true to the base unit scaling the 'full screen' scale is also going to be in units of 8.
Sure you could rescale, or do some other shenanigans to get it into nicer units but then it would look lopsided and uncentered (which is something to keep an eye out for on intentionally misleading graphics).
Not a 'stupid american' thing but a 'stupid computers' thing.

Why is it depressing to you?

That much wealth for a single person who have no use. But no money for dying or needy people. Humanity is fucked.
