Don't you ever question ANYTHING put out by the people in your echo chamber?

Spend some time with the 2015 report. It has pretty graphs and stuff to help you understand that your source you're quoting is, apparently, living in an abstract world where they must be right so the data is wrong.

Maybe you'll even feel compelled to self-delete this OP.
