I'm looking for a graphic representation (comic, diagram, etc.) of the broken window fallacy. It could take any example, just just a broken window. For bonus points, an illustration of Bastiat's other fallacy about wartime employment would be great. One reddit.com, I've heard people say that the broken window fallacy is itself a fallacy. We need it in graphic form so that people cannot maneuver around the truth.
