I did read this whole post, so I suppose I may as well pass it along. It's basically a summary of trends in  public funding on higher education, and its core message - which is indisputable - is that trends vary around the world. The y-axis is an unlabeled set of values that likely stands for the percentage of increase or decrease (per year) for various countries. What I would like to have seen was a per capita analysis. If your funding increases 1% while your population increases 10%, that's not really a funding increase in any meaningful sense of the term.
