Howdy all, question relating to data but not sure where else to ask this; is there a way to measure the health and progress of the U.S, and if so is there already a website out there that does this? I was thinking the other day, with election season coming up again, I want a more informed and data driven method of deciding how I should vote, and i was thinking about how I would like to see a dashboard of metrics that measure how well the U.S is doing as a country. Something like a PowerBI or Tableau dashboard where i can have one graphic showing something like crime rates this year vs last year, another showing inflation increase on groceries, maybe another showing avg cost of healthcare in US and by State, and another showing how much we spend on Education. Basically, whatever I think are the top 10 ways I want to measure the health of the US, i want to be able to put those on a dashboard home page that i can check in on periodically. I dont know how feasible this is with how much data is publicly available, but I honestly feel like this could be a great way to help educate and inform people before they decide to go vote. If any of you have suggestions on a website that does this already or a good way to start building something like this please let me know. I have a couple ideas and if its not already a thing I wanna try and build it and make it publicly accessible.
