  Good Charts
Most charts are a variation on one of four basic types: pie charts, bar charts, time series charts and scatterplots.  Choosing the right type of chart depends on the characteristics of the data and the relationships you want displayed.
Bar charts typically display the relationship between one or more categorical variables with one or more quantitative variables represented by the length of the bars.  The categorical variables are usually defined by the categories displayed on the X-axis and, if there is more than one data series, by the legend.
One common bar charting mistake is including the legend on the right-hand side of the plot area (shown in figure 12), placing the legend inside the plot area, as in figure 9, or horizontally under the table title (as in figure 11) maximizes the size of the area given over to displaying the data.

Bar charts are often used to illustrate data so that different categories can be compared.
Two common charts easily produced by spreadsheet programs that should almost always be avoided are the stacked bar chart and the pie chart.
The stacked bar chart, made even worse by the use of 3-D effects in figure 3, makes it very difficult to estimate the values of the variables represented on the top of the bars.

 Junk Charts: Bar chart
Tim claimed that this chart proved precisely the opposite of what the EPI intended it to show, that is, that the chart showed that "the poor in America have exactly the same standard of living as the poor in Finland (and Sweden)", two countries which he derided as "redistributionist paradises".
In the revised chart, I plotted another popular measure of income equality, the ratio of 90th percentile to 10th percentile (since the data is readily available from the EPI chart).
Disaggregating the bars is a good idea but the use of squares is unfortunate, especially when the relative percentage is made proportional to the edge length, not the area of the square.
