As the story goes, Goldilocks never met bears like these.... a historical comparison of four "bad bear markets"; the Dow Crash of 1929, the Oil Crisis in 1973, the Tech Crash of 2000 and the current recession.I found this on DShort.com , there is also a great job loss comparison with four different looks at the recession from Flowing Data .
Again, the graphical display over time seem most relevant in communicating financial turmoil.
The second image is from Calculated Risk as of the February job loss numbers. One can imagine with the huge hemorrhaging of jobs in the last six months our "line" has sunk quite a bit further.
